Music, Movies, and Books

Music:
My tastes are diversifying, but right now The Dear Hunter, Modest Mouse Brand New, Thrice, OK Go, Porcupine Tree, There Will Be Fireworks and John Frusciante are getting me more excited than a 14yo girl at a Justin Bieber mall show/riot.

TV Shows:
Series that are psychologically thrilling like Breaking Bad, Homeland or House of Cards. Also I find the politically incorrect antics of the gang from Always Sunny in Philadelphia hilarious.

Movies:
If you don't like Dumb and Dumber , we can't be friends. Also, all the cinematic epics in the drama/adventure/memoir genres. Not that there's any time for long movies while couchsurfing.

Books:
Historical fiction and quality investigative journalism
