CURRENT MISSION

Get sh*t done so that I can leave town!

ABOUT ME

I like to have everyday adventures, make a picnic out of a day. I love the part of the day before the sun sets & the light is gold. I love street life & street food.

PHILOSOPHY

I guess it's about finding balance, with yourself, others, the earth. I do the best I can, and if I don't figure it out this time, there's always the next life.
