CURRENT MISSION

I would love to support myself through writing and traveling, but wouldn't everyone? :)

ABOUT ME

I was a career student and then decided I needed to get a job so that I could travel more extensively. I adore people, places, conversation, wine and food...all put together and I am utterly blissful.

PHILOSOPHY

The only true currency in this bankrupt world is what we share with someone else when we're uncool.
