Chi sono
CURRENT MISSION
Explore the world slowly but thoroughly
ABOUT ME
I am a graduate of Macalester College in nearby St. Paul. I majored in geography, I speak fluent French (might be a bit rusty by now...), and these days, I am in graduate school at the University of Minnesota.
I am an amateur photographer, painter and draftsman. I garden and enjoy nature. I also like to bicycle, run and swim. I read a lot of nonfiction for pleasure, usually history and science books.
I am an avid explorer, of space, of cultures, and of history. I enjoy meeting new people and going on adventures!
PHILOSOPHY
This ain't the dress rehearsal for life. You're on-stage now. Act accordingly.
