Reading and trying new restaurants

I'm an avid reader with an ever-growing library of over 500 books, including some rare gems.  I love getting lost in historical fiction and epic fantasy worlds. When I’m not curled up on the couch lost in a great story, you’ll find me exploring new restaurants and savoring the perfect pairing of food and drink. Whether it’s finding the next culinary masterpiece or the next great read, I’m always on the hunt for new adventures!
