Interests

My interests are in SE Asia and photography. I would like to make an extended photographic tour of the area and design coffee table books. Additionally, I became a professional diver, studied the Thai language, and learned to cook both Western style and Thai. From an early age, my family circumstances were difficult and I basically became somewhat introverted as a result, however, my basic personality is not necessarily so; during this time I experimented with yogic disciplines and experienced a multitude of transcendental inspirations. From living overseas I developed a strong empathy for people and an appreciation of cultures that do not have the materialistic bent of our societies. Additionally, I researched the potential for importing goods from Asia. I also renovated a few apartments and have an interest in repairing homes! Historical interest in Europe and ancient history as well as academic analysis of current events led me to follow such academics as Jeffery Sachs, Pat Buchanan, and other notables who present documented facts rather than political narratives.
