Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To live everyday to its fullest and regret nothing
ABOUT ME
I'm very passionate about art, food, music, animals, nature and travel. I've been a vegetarian since I was 5, because that was the age I realised I couldn't eat my friends. I try to live and consume consciously. I'm studying towards a Fine Art degree, and see myself as a community artist/visual activist.
PHILOSOPHY
A positive attitude can be the answer to anything
