About Me

wakeful dreamer with a suitcase heart

My Interests

good music, good films, honest conversations, wine, asian culture, Bio ethics, biopsych, fireplaces, fireflies, coffee shops, paint, driving with my windows down, san francisco, and people...from a distance, and some people up close

I'd like to meet:

people who enjoy good conversations, good music, and a good time. I like to meet people i can learn from, people who are willing to challenge everything they "know" so they might deepen their understanding of whatever it is they claim. People that are willing to be proven wrong, and people that will present me with the same challenge. i'd like to meet people who aren't willing to sell out just to gain the popular vote. I'd like to meet people who are down right entertaining and who appreciate good humor...people who are willing to be affected.
