CURRENT MISSION

To travel many places and understand different cultures

ABOUT ME

Hello, my name is Clay Balsamo. I love to travel, meet new people, and explore different places and culture. I like to take photos, make films, and also write. I am a vegetarian and have been 11 years. Hope we get get to meet.

PHILOSOPHY

I am a vegetarian, not because I don't like the taste of meat, but because I feel bad about eating animals, and choose not to eat them. I do eat fish though.
