By day, you'll find me splitting my time between studying random Jewish stuff, and learning how to put my idealism into action. I'm a fan of adventures -- hole-in-the-wall jazz clubs, the old cottages and covered bridges hidden in the Wissahicken along Forbidden Drive, Park Slope brownstones, that irritating Mr. Softee jingle, the curvy one-way streets in Northern Liberties, walking over the Brooklyn Bridge, and the light reflecting off the Schuykill River about 2 hours before dusk.

you know who you are ...

but seriously, i'm looking for someone to help me explore Philly, who gets excited by visiting new neighborhoods and checking out all the events listed in phillyweekly and citypaper. judaism and social justice/tikkun olam are very important to me, and i'd want to be able to share that with you. having a fun, artsy side is great, too, for those spontaneous adventures and sundays at the museums (or also some laid-back sundays reading the nytimes - i was very excited to see that philly gets the full metro section here - it's almost like I never left new york!)
