About Me

Happy to host cool people with similar interests!

~ ~ ~ ~

I like getting down and dirty with locals when I travel, I enjoy going to markets very, very much... the sights, sounds and smell is my dose of local everyday life, I like supporting local trade and crafts esp. handmade goods, I love subcultures, countercultures, parks and squares, street food and learning about social movements. I prefer secondhand clothing and love experimenting with make-up and hair. I love punk bands and punk gigs. Frida Kahlo's my fav artist and I'm a fan of George Carlin, Neil Degrasse Tyson, dystopian movies/books/tv series.
