About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Eat my way through the world

ABOUT ME

I currently work as a statistical data monkey to pay the bills but my heart really belong elsewhere. Where? I'm still trying to figure it out.

I am a laid back, spontaneous, lazy Sundays enjoying, beach loving, dance like no one is watching, food loving, tone death but still singing, sarcastic, coffee snob, wine drinking, gadget loving, random kinda girl.

PHILOSOPHY

Don't be a jerk. Keep an open mind. Try everything once. Everything will turn out ok in the end.

Music, Movies, and Books

Books: Beloved by Toni Morrison, A Thousand Splendid Suns, What is the What, Island in the Sea and too many to list.

Movies: My Sassy Girl, Sliding Doors, Little Manhattan, 50 First Dates, My Fair Lady, My Best Friend's Wedding, Saving Face, Disney movies, Pixar movies

Music: I've got way too much music on my iPod. I have quite an eclectic mix of music. As long as it sounds good, I'd listen to it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The Grand Canyon is gorgeous beyond words. Ha Long Bay in Vietnam is breath taking but I might be biased since it is my home country. Hiking up the Half Dome in Yosemite.
