About Me

many of the scarce memories I have from my early childhood are of me and my grandpa, a retired diplomat now, him asking me to choose a spot on the world map, me choosing far away large cities or most remote islands and him telling me unbelievable stories about them while we are looking at the photos. that magical moments shaped my wanderlust and now I am a nomad. I want to live a life worth living without fear, full of passion.

I have traveled in between april 2016 & march 2019 and this is my path:

“nothing behind me, everything ahead of me, as is ever so on the road.”

"the only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars and in the middle you see the blue centerlight pop and everybody goes 'awww!'"
