About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Currently traveling around Southeast Asia/Living in Bangkok, Thailand

ABOUT ME

when I'm not stuck in the bitter-sweet hell of academia and the service industry, I travel. anywhere and everywhere.

I make things with my hands (when i can get them out of my head).

I spend time with amazing people who melt my heart.

I daydream more than I should.

I love to meet new people, especially those who classify themselves as the following:

good listeners, good story tellers, creative folk, queer outsiders, sassy boys and girls, the free-spirited, the wandering souls.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is what you make it, open your own doors.
