[edit] Who am I?

Adam Stanhope is 39, married with one child and lives in Kingston, Massachusetts, USA. I enjoy traveling, science fiction, digital photography, music, movies, flowers, geography and the internet. I like antique homes, the New England Coast, Southeast Asia, Paris, London and my family. I am an entrepreneur with professional history, interest and expertise in software, internet, guerrilla marketing, psychedelia and international trade.

I attended the University of California, Berkeley in the late 1980s and early 1990s. I lived in Berkeley's infamous Barrington Hall for its last year as a USCA coop. While at Berkeley I was an undeclared Asian Studies major for which I focused my studies on Mandarin Chinese, Thai, geography, economics and third world development.

I really love Facebook and if you'd like to get in touch with me, adding me as a friend there is a good start. Here's a link to my Facebook profile.
