CURRENT MISSION

Stabilizing, post-travels.

ABOUT ME

Brian: I'm from a (relatively) tiny city in south east Idaho, where there isn't much external stimulus with which to occupy oneself. As a result, I spend a lot of time with my nose in a book, keeping journals, playing/writing/listening to music, camping, etc. I have been working as a private guitar instructor for the past year or so and have garnered an enormous amount of fulfillment from it; something about teaching little kids Beatles songs that really gets my goat. I've been learning how to take care of myself (in a broad sense), as most early-20s have to... and I'm getting a little bored with doing the stability dance; gettin' the itch to hit the road again.
Thomas: I come from a small community in Texas where I was raised on music and in an open minded family. I went to school for art and music and am currently traveling to better myself.

PHILOSOPHY

To quote the esteemed rapper/actor/basketball player Shaquille O'Neil: "Y'all Jealous punks/Can't stop ma dunks."
