CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

hello there. i'm traveling around canada and a bit of the states for the next few months. it would be fun to meet some natives. at home i work in a not-for-profit co-op cafe and i love the community that has grown around it. there is nothing more inspiring than stumbling across diy scenes or individuals putting themselves into something just for the love of it. just because it means something, and makes sense to them. i want to learn a trade. i want to go live in the woods with a dog and make pots all day. imagine that?

PHILOSOPHY

Always be drunk. That's it! The great imperative! In order not to feel Time's horrid fardel bruise your shoulders, grinding you into the earth, Get drunk and stay that way. On what? On wine, poetry, virtue, whatever. But get drunk. And if you sometimes happen to wake up on the porches of a palace, in the green grass of a ditch,in the dismal loneliness of your own room, your drunkenness gone or disappearing, ask the wind, the wave, the star, the bird, the clock, ask everything that flees, everything that groans or rolls or sings, everything that speaks, ask what time it is; and the wind, the wave, the star, the bird, the clock will answer you: "Time to get drunk! Don't be martyred slaves of Time, Get drunk! Stay drunk! On wine, virtue, poetry, whatever!
