What is your favorite candy or snack food?
Nothing store bought. EVERYTHING my mother bakes!
If you had unlimited resources, where would you travel to?
I’d take a helicopter to La Jumet, a lighthouse that’s built on a rock off the coast of Ushant Island in North-western France.

What book, film, tv show or album do you return to again and again?
