About Me

CURRENT MISSION

The US of A?

ABOUT ME

I'm an exchange student from Australia. I'm currently studying at Berkeley and would like to visit New York for half a week in December.

I have recently fallen in love with argentinean tango and I sing out loud all the time. I do mathematics and physics and hope to specialise in some intersection of the two - something like string theory perhaps.

I have some interest in philosophy when I can find the time. I've read a little Plato, Kant, Berkeley, Sartre, etc.

PHILOSOPHY

I live my life to explore the unknown, to find out the answers to some fundamental questions and to experience all that my senses can give me.
