Hippie(ish) of sorts

I'm Isaac, a photographer and writer. I teach yoga, meditation, and love to hike and explore. Passionate about making the world a better place 🌞.

Photography, film, and music lover. Passionate about adventure, and would love to share some of my culture with you.

I just finished a journalism internship and am traveling on my way to live in a monastery and later study yoga in India. We’d love to explore local culture with you 🌎📸

My goal is to practice yoga and see a foreign film in each country I visit 🌱
