About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To make friends and acquaintances and share experiences/adventure.

ABOUT ME

I am an artist, a writer, a poet and a tortured soul. I will be attending art school this Fall. I deeply enjoy travelling and meeting people, and becoming familiar with people--no touristy shit, I want the real culture.

PHILOSOPHY

No Regrets. The things we do, and have done are what make us who we are. To deprive ourselves of an experience, stifles our ability to be human. All we have is now.

"Do not seek to have events happen the way you want them to happen, but instead, want them to happen as they do, and your life will go well."
-Epictetus
