CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

daunting!! I am 30, I am an American. we sometimes think that the things we love are unique to us, I just realized that is not true and its really comforting.

PHILOSOPHY

existence before essence please, or maybe.....ehh, no, thats good.

Interests

Art, Art history, flailing with abandon, charcoal, I draw and play guitar for fun and yes even sometimes for cash and prizes, I travel when ever I can, which is never enough, I do yoga, I consider reading a vocation more than a hobby, I love language, existential absurdist philosophy, yarn bombing, ham, origami, Cycling (the urban kind, not the spandex around mountain passes kind) I like bourbon, string, I want to be an audiophile but I need more money to buy more music. I love hills, and vistas, ants, COFFEE, love that, turkish or espresso, skyscrapers, urban architecture in general, dawn and dusk ( the middle of the day can be trying) ohh, lots more i guess, tbc.
