About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To exist

ABOUT ME

Been in London, Southern Spain, Northern Morocco and currently Portugal in the most recent of times. Next month Sweden, France for the hell of it and Iceland in the summer. September is looking like Turkey, Greece or Russia. What do you think?

PHILOSOPHY

Earth...
Like you father or brother or mother, because you born from Earth, you got to come back to Earth.
When you dead...That's your bone. Your blood. It's in this Earth.
My people...
Not many, we getting too old.
Young People...
I don't know if the can hang onto this story. But now you know this story. You responsible now.
You got to go with us to Earth.
Might be that you can hang onto this story, to this Earth. -Bill Neidjie

"There is no means of testing which decision is better, because there is no basis for comparison. We live everything as it comes, without warning, like an actor going on cold. And what can life be worth if the first rehearsal for life is life itself?" -Milan Kundera 'The Unbearable Lightness of Being'

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Most days have a slice of something breath taking. Something that gives a Bert. When Bert drops in, Pang bolts for the door right.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am big on exchange. Even if I am the only one giving. I hope we humans can all touch each other in some way and leave something beautiful or useful behind.
