Sorry I cannot host at the moment! I'm from San Diego, but haven't lived in California for 3 years or so. After traveling to a few countries for several months, I lived in Saigon, Vietnam for one year, traveled a little more, and then moved to Phnom Penh, Cambodia, where I worked full time as a tattoo artist. Now I'm back in the US deciding where to go next and tattooing as I go.
