I am an American living and working in Seoul, Korea.
A little bit about me:
My interests include football (soccer), tennis, golf, billiards, travel, reading, foreign languages, world geography, and ancient history. I'm especially interested in learning more about the lesser known civilizations of the world and the origins of man and nation. I have a Master's Degree in International Affairs.
I've been to over 40 countries on five continents, albeit mostly European locations. But really, I am fascinated by Asia and have lived in various parts of the region for over 10 years. My favorite places to visit are Cuba, France, Italy, Japan, Korea, and Thailand.
I eat Korean food almost every day, but I love Japanese-style sashimi and sushi. The perfect meal for me would be a traditional Japanese bento box with some kimchi. There is nothing better when you're hungry late at night than Mexican food though. I also enjoy French, Italian, Chinese, Indian, Thai, and Vietnamese.
