Personal Description
Quote To understand as much of it all as I can.
Dream Destination Before I die, I want to live in Paris. I want to spend months and months in Central and South America- Chile, Argentina, and Guatemala in particular. I want to see Germany, Poland, and other Eastern European countries like Hungary and Romania. I want to visit Iceland. I want to travel to Japan, Thailand, Vietnam and China.
Embarrassing Moment My whole life has been a string of embarrassing moments.
Super Power Universal fluency.
Favorite Band Don't get me started.
Favorite Film Anything that leaves me feeling happy, especially if it's foreign.
Favorite Book Nearly impossible to chose. I try to read as much as possible. Lately, I've been on a where-our-food-comes-from trend as well as a personal-essay-on-religion kick.
Things I Hate Hate.
Favorite Activities Traveling.
Favorite Website news.bbc.co.uk/
