Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
to strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.
ABOUT ME
I'm 25, american, pretty tall, and really sarcastic. I live in Lyon and I am working/doing a Master/ loving every minute of French lifestyle!
PHILOSOPHY
To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.
Youre poor if all you have is money
The aim of life is to live, and to live means to be aware, joyously, drunkenly, serenely, divinely aware.
Don't take life too seriously...no one gets out alive anyway.
"Le bonheur, c'est de continuer a desirer ce qu'on possede"
