ABOUT ME

I enjoy completely meaningless conversations.

It is my passion to travel the world, and meet amazing people. There's so many different places to see, people to meet, and experiences to have.

PHILOSOPHY

I like to live on a principle of utilitarian happiness. As long as you live with realism, logic, and a general respect for the rights of others, do whatever makes you happy.
