About Me

Was hardly ill during last three years. This is my first big trip after. Let's burn!

ABOUT ME

"All" is a bit much, so I'll run through the important bits. I love exploring, whether its in a town, on a menu, whatever. There's nothing cooler than taking a side alley in a new city and finding something amazing that's not in the guidebook.
