Music, Movies, and Books

I listen to all different sorts of music: a lot of classic rock, classical music, in the past few years I've really fallen in love with jazz music of all sorts of different kinds, I'm also a huge fan of folk music, from joni mitchell to older stuff like django reinhardt and leadbelly. However, I'm always really excited to find mew music, so I'll listen to everything. As far as books go, I love too many to even attempt to list--but lately I have discovered Anais Nin, who is one of my current favorites. I think her adventurous spirit and openness is an inspiration.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

cliff jumping in the Ganga, Nepal trekking, Indis yog-ing.. this list is way too long!

Teach, Learn, Share

I really love sharing cooking secrets, or even just new foods that I don't know. Also, music and book swapping is always awesome.
