About Me

I'm originally from Northern CA-moved around like crazy overseas-spent roughly 7 yrs. in the Caribbean (mostly in Haiti) until findin' my place here in Arlington, VA. I'm a mixed mutt...mom is Brasilian & Chinese (from Hong Kong & Macau) w/ a little Pacific Islander & father is Welsh, Dutch & Cherokee Indian. See flags below ;-) 1st languages (jointly) were Brasilian Portugese & English, but also speak Spanish, French, Haitian Creole & a bit of Jamaican Patois (very little).
Love live music, obsessed w/movies, gadgets or anything w/lights & buttons (the asian in me), soccer, football, women (especially brunettes...brasileiras & all latinas ;-) & all music (specifically reggae/dancehall/ol'skool hip hop/DMB/Jack Johnson/bossa nova/Portishead/Beastie Boys/311/DJ Shadow/brahm/Matisyahu/Steel Pulse/Led Zep/the Doors/Beck/Sneaker Pimps/Rage/Jamiroquai/Sublime/and on and on and on, etc.). Love the beach, surfing, clear caribbean waters, bonfires, bbq's, my 2 PS2's, sleeping diagonal on my futon & hanging out w/ good friends.
