About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Have resources for free housing on trips. Meet new people.

ABOUT ME

I am a complacent individual condemned to be free and losing myself wherever life takes me.

I love writing, particularly poetry, and reading. I am a fairly independent person, but I always enjoy having a nice conversation with someone over coffee (or actually tea...I don't like coffee), as well as normal activities like playing board games, watching movies, volunteering, etc.

I have a cat named Eddie Mercury.

Existence precedes essence.
