CURRENT MISSION to be able to afford this verification thingy ABOUT ME I'm a 6 foot 5 international wanderer, being brought up in both England and Holland. I spend a lot of time reading literature and philosophy, listening to music, especially Tom Waits and Leonard Cohen, and running around in South East London and Amsterdam. I love doing late night tours around cities that I have no idea about, but tend to spend the mornings sitting around in the sun and rain, getting to grips with the day ahead. In between, I try to be a chirpy, gallery going, 20-something. Not too cynical, not too in your face. Just chirpy. PHILOSOPHY Try everything. Probbaly twice for good measure.

My Interests
Books, especially European modernist and Romanticist literature, and a bit of Sartre and Kierkegaard on the side. I've been playing guitar since I was eight, and spend a lot of time listening to music, mainly experimentally, electoronica-y, classically stuff, but I can definetly get into a decent pop song. Photography, art, partying, exploring, fruit. Lots of stuff.
