Hiking, camping, rafting, snowboarding, Las Vegas (LOVE Las Vegas), traveling, theatre, improv, music, concerts, photography, Peace Corps, animals, bowling, yoga, cooking, dancing, reading, learning, I could go on - I like a lot of different things.
Nee bedankt! My friends and my Peace Corps sembe are better than anything I could have asked for in my life. I'm partial to Bakaa konde womis. I also especially love my saramaccan mujee Basia-Mai and the Upper Suriname River. Carnival was amazing!!
I like all types of music but my favorites are Guster (Number 1 favorite band!), Dispatch, David Gray, Ben Folds, Kelly Clarkson(sorry), Lucky Boys Confusion, Flogging Molly, String Cheese Incident, Dave Matthews Band, and anything Oldies (50s, 60s and early 70s).
Suriname Music:
Gentleman, Jah Youth, Mix 2000, Ritchie Spice, Joe, Sariboys, Bailou, Natural Black and Reda Boys
Right now the top 5 movies that I could watch over and over again are Brokeback Mountain (go see it!) Amelie, Italian Job, tie between Harold and Kumar go to White Castle and Out Cold, and Saved (If you ever went to Catholic school, you need to see this movie!) okay so that was six but they are all awesome in different ways.
I hate tv so only 2 shows have managed to overtake me so that I am obsessed with them, 24 and Family Guy. But I do like to watch Food Network and the Travel Channel sometimes.
Recently - Road Fever by Tim Cahill, anything by Tim Robbins and Chuck Palanik, Harry Potter of course and books about Suriname.
One of the most amazing people ever, my grandma. Anyone who is out there fighting to make a difference - especially in the third world.
