Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
well, to see the world on a small budget; because it's the only one i have:) in an attempt to broaden my personal world.
ABOUT ME
i have either given away or sold practically all of my possessions and set off on a voyage around the world with nothing but my backpack. i am very fond of eccentricity and different outlooks. my mission is to see what the world has to offer. i left my friends and family in peace and hope to return with peace of mind. i am willing to exchange a helping hand around the house in exchange for limited stay.
PHILOSOPHY
i was raised catholic, though, ironically, my mother is buddhist and my father is aitheist. i believe that there is a mysterious force of energy which pulls us all and that our purpose is to feel it and understand our own influence. i am vegan going on vegetarian due to traveling conveniences/inconveniences. i do not expect others to understand or conform. i wish to cause no pain or suffering to accomodate me.
