Favorite Music I write my own songs. I am also a world music freak. I listen to all kinds; however I must admit that I'm not a big fan of country & western. As part of my study and interest, I've been listening to a lot of Afro-Peruvian music. Lately I've been listening to some Canadian artists such as Feist and Buck 65. I like K'naan and Kna'an, Finger Eleven, System of a Down. I love movie soundtracks. I'm diggin' M.I.A. I have Peter Gabriel, Björk, Susheela Raman, Loreena McKennit, The Mars Volta, I Mother Earth, Tori Amos, Manu Chao, Joao Bosco, Putamayo collection, classical music, 80s music, Brazilian, Cuban, Peruvian and Colombian music, Lauryn Hill, Asian Dub Foundation, Cheb Mami, Moroccan music, Soukouss, Zap Mama, Imogen Heap and Bob Marley on high rotation. I'm always looking for new sounds.
Favorite Books La Biblia. I also love poetry. Some of my favourite poets are Pablo Neruda, John Donne, Marge Piercy, Maya Angelou, Octavio Paz, Shakespeare, Galway Kinell, Alejo Carpentier etc. I have a lot of favourite books too many to name. I've enjoyed reading books that I just couldn't put down. You know a book is fantastic when it's 3am and you have toothpicks keeping your eyelids open. You can't sleep without finishing the dang novel!
