I have always lived, even on the nights I thought the world would end. I was always laughing when the sadness came and I still laughed. Travelling acts like a mirror to show me to myself and it's necessary. We change so subtly that sometimes we realise we are not who we used to be the same way we realize we cut our fingers washing up. Not at all and then suddenly. But you always live again, so I should keep tabs on my appearance lest I get scruffy whilst I'm not looking ....

I love writing but I hate writing about myself so have a spur of the moment metaphor that probably just makes me look insane. I also love taking pictures and reading. That's all I want to do so I'm going to do it. Whatever it takes. I'm here on this earth to learn and hope to see as many ways of life as I can and learn of as many people as time will allow.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm doing an apprenticeship and piercing and dreadlocking and I'm learning Afrikaans and Dutch and would love to meet people who know the language, I play a bit of ukulele and could help a brother out... And I have lots of strange, intricate and beautiful things to share in relation to art, philosophies, music and photography and maybe a funny story or two
