CURRENT MISSION

Deep in aesthetic contemplation, Seeing the ponds catch fire And cast it through ring after ring Of land: O death in the middle Of acres of inch-deep water!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In all my travels, the most amazing experience I've had was at a restaurant called Thai Palace in Washington D.C., which no longer exists, muthafucka!

Teach, Learn, Share

Teaching is learning is sharing is couchsurfing. My research, however, involves AIDS and post-structuralist historiography! Two yay topics for me to share with you, if you really want. I'm currently into anything involving images (e.g. filmmaking) and the ethics of travel <<>>?
