Music, Movies, and Books

Classical, Jazz, reggae, Little Dragon & Men I Trust hit the spot quite nicely.

Auteur film, classic film, foreign language film, contemporary film if it has something interesting to say (pretty rare though) - I know it sounds ridiculous, but I'm picky about movies.

I love books, but I’m not very disciplined in finishing them (both fiction and non-fiction) — I blame the internet. I did read The Stranger a few months ago, but I’m still not sure how I feel about it...maybe confused

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Volunteering in Benin - avoided the Ebola outbreak

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach/Share: Anything film, cooking, English, photography, art, American culture, gardening, discuss just about anything.
