CURRENT MISSION

To learn, laugh and live to the best of my ability!

ABOUT ME

Right now I love electronic music.
I LOVE TV shows! Breaking Bad, The Wire, Dexter (Season 1-5), Oz, Game of Thrones, It's Always Sunny, Black Books, Spaced, Arrested Development, The Sopranos, Seinfeld, Curb your Enthusiasm, 30 Rock. I love talking about TV shows, recommending them and getting recommendations from other people!

Teach, Learn, Share

One of the best parts about travelling is meeting people (good and not so good because you learn from both). Whether it's hearing a new joke, learning a new recipe or getting a good bar or restaurant recommendation! And though I'm not very good at it, I'm happy to teach people to juggle!
