CURRENT MISSION

To teach, travel, and eat delicious things!

ABOUT ME

Filling out boxes like this alaways feels strange. How do I dilute myself into a few short sentences?

While I certainly consider myself to be something more than the sum of my interests, here are some of them that may hint at who I am:

I love literature and read as much as I can.

I love music and listen to nearly everything (though admittedly I listen to more punk / ska / and synthpop than anything else)

I love boardgames and collect them from all over the world.

I love to write and want to hang with strangers and do new things for the wonderful experiences it adds to my life and the improvement those experiences will have on my writing.

I like to make completely unfounded blanket statements (this provides the best reactions from others and often acts as a good starting point for conversation)

I like to alternate between being completely self-deprecating and confident to the point of narcissism.

Interests

Oops, I guess I covered this in all about me. Now I feel like I botched that one and people are going to not understand me at all.
