CURRENT MISSION

Figure out what a home is.

ABOUT ME

I'm teaching English for a year in Queretaro, Mexico and working on my paintings! I love to explore and spend time looking at things. Also eating. That's really important. I'm still new here, so I'd really like to meet people and I'm extra willing to show visitors around and see new things myself.

PHILOSOPHY

I read this in a fortune cookie: "First, think of what you want to do. Then, do what you have to do."

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Once, while camping, I woke up to something touching my foot. Outside the rainfly-less tent, a baby bear was snuffling my feet through the tent fabric! Then it trundled away. Nobody believes that this happened. I hope writing it down here legitimizes the experience.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you to draw, to eat, a few italian recipes...
