Today I realized that I have not updated this since over 3 years ago. Luckily not much has changed so only small corrections have to be made.

I can't draw but I love coloring in coloring books. I graduated from the University of California Berkeley, was a Peace Corps volunteer in Ecuador, now in NYC. I'm always down to try something new and exciting but I have been known to spend hours drinking coffee and reading a good book. I always laugh at my own jokes. I have poor grammar. I absolutely love candy. I am extremely clumsy. I think bookshelves are super sweet!

Centres d'intérêt

silly stuff. gnomes. dinosaurs. candy. good beer. good wine. dancing. listening to music because i have no musical talent to create my own.
my favorite vegetable is squash.
my favorite fruit is açai, even if it makes my lips titanic purple. close second is mango since açai is simply not fresh or good outside of Brazil.
my favorite fruit/vegetable is the tomato.
I prefer coffee to tea.
I have an irrational fear that small dogs might bite my achilles tendon.
