CURRENT MISSION

To see and do as much as I can in this world before modern life and obligations tie me down to any one place.

ABOUT ME

Sarcastic, interested in weird movies and sad books, fascinated by languages and cultures, often hungry

PHILOSOPHY

I suppose I don't really have an overarching philosophy. I take life as it comes and act on events as I see fit, though I'd like to think I have certain morals and ideals.

Interests

I love going to the cinema! Also seeing friends, having the odd drink, walking around or riding my bike, making fruit smoothies, and doing David Lynch podcasts...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The enormity and majesty of the Pyrénées and Rocky mountains, the Sagrada Familia, the Berliner Dom, the Budapest bathhouses and various different neighborhoods in Toronto.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you all sorts of stuff about different languages (words, writing scripts, features unique to respective languages/dialects), and lots about history of the world - which I am truly fascinated by.

I can also teach graphic design (Photoshop and InDesign), and lots of different aspects of making a film (mostly film editing and sound mixing). However, I am always looking for new insights and help from photographers!
