What book, movie read/seen recently you would recommend and why?
I recently watched Peanut Butter Falcon for the first time, and loved it! I just thought it was a beautiful story about two people on very different yet parallel paths in life, and how they make the most of their journey together.
Are you a traveler or a homebody? Why?
Depends on the day! But lately I've wanted to get out and about more than I have in the past.
