I moved out to CO right after college to work with AmeriCorps and have been back in NYC for almost 2 years. Love it here, but also like getting out of the city a fair amount. Love the beach and the mountains (still not sure which one I like more), read a lot, dance dance dance, ]snowboard in the winter, and play the banjo (not well). You should also know that I plan every minute around my next meal... I can almost definitely eat you under the table with room to spare. Love to travel and my favorite places so far are NZ, Alaska and Laos. Currently planning a trip for next summer (so far away, sad) to the North Pole (I poop with excitement just thinking about it !) ... Just to put it out there, favorite things include dumplings and people who wink. Major turnoffs include people who feel the need to say "just kidding" when they are just kidding and anyone who wears sunglasses inside... c'mon, really, REALLY?

Just officially joined the grown-up world a few months ago after college, a 3 year stopover in CO, and 2 delightful years in grad school.

I work for the city, and I love it... you're tax dollars are in good hands, I promise

Putting people at ease .... and car games

I also pride myself on my ability to be a good share-er

Drinking coffee (pre-game style) and gearing up for a fun night with my buddies... yes, the grown-up world has resulted in my needing a bit more caffeine to hang, but what can you do?

I'm picking my nose, right .. NOW!

a). laugh at booger jokes
