CURRENT MISSION

Leave my world behind, see the real one! To find what I want, see what the world has to teach me about humanity and about myself. To enjoy life while I can, to create memories I'll cherish for life. To figure out how I can make this world better.

ABOUT ME

I'm really pretty simple! I'm a big kid at heart, passionate and curious. I love meeting people who *think* about life, rather than just meander on through it. I'm in to art - of any kind really. Outside some painting my main outlet is now photography. It's easy, it's handy and I love it. So there. It's become an addiction while I'm on the road. I love FOOD, DRINK and MUSIC and mixing the three... with a good chair... and maybe a good book or conversation too. I love life on the road, I always knew I would, I just had a few things to get done first, like starting a career! So now I'm doing it and it's everything I'd hoped and more. Meeting people, discovering places, understanding the world and myself, doing nothing but living. I'm glad I was given this opportunity and I want a world where such beautiful things can be enjoyed by everyone. I shall now stop rambling, you'll know ALL about me when you meet me :)

PHILOSOPHY

The purpose of life is a life of purpose. Realise that you have the potential to change the world and you will. It's never too late to change yourself or your world for the better. So just try.
