__________

A native New Yorker, I am now studying in London, doing my MA in the history of art, so I'm mostly interested in making some friends in the London area. However, I like hearing from anyone with whom I can have a nice conversation.

I'm basically a big nerd. I spend most of my time reading or googling obscurities. I like to learn new things, meet new people, and have nice conversations, usually over a meal or a drink. I fancy myself a photographer, and I tend to cut out pictures of things that inspire me. I've yet to figure out what to do with them.
