As with most people on VT, I enjoy traveling. There is nothing like being immersed in a different culture and learning their customs. Usually when I visit a new city, I like to visit the museums, especially the art museums. I also try to sample the local foods and visit a local pub.

Currently, I live in Orlando, Florida, though I do not remember the last time I visited a theme park here. In fact, I usually try to avoid that area of the city. In Orlando, I am a patron of theaters and art museums. My favorite local festival is the Fringe Festival http://www.orlandofringe.org/ which is 10 days of theater from local and international groups.

Places I've lived:

Pensacola, Florida
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
Atlanta, Georgia
Greeley, Colorado
Phoenix, Arizona (summer and college break)
Boston, Massachusetts (summers and college breaks)
Jonquiere, Canada (foreign exchange program 2 summers)
Frankfurt, Germany
New York, New York (subletted an apartment for a summer)
Orlando, Florida

Favorite books about people and places:

This list is in no specific order of importance.

Long Walk to Freedom: The Autobiography of Nelson Mandela
Bury Me Standing: The gypsies and their Journey by Isabel Fonseca
The Zombie Survival Guide by Max Brooks
The Rasputin File by Edvard Radzinsky
Nicholas and Alexandra by Robert K. Massie
Peter the Great by Robert K Massie
In a Sunburned Country by Bill Bryson
Under a Banner of Heaven by Jon Krakauer

 Spent a few hours in Winter Park this past Saturday. Love the Farmer's Market scene especially sampling the baked goods. Cookies from Pam's Confections... Red Velvet Cake from Davis Bakery
