About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Simply to understand the world. Full on immersion!

ABOUT ME

After graduating high school I began drifting, not so much like a vagabond, though there were times I was probably questionable. I simply wanted to find my niche, I had it in my mind that every single person had there soul location destined for them. As I kept integrating myself into other cities, states, cultures, etc. I began to realize that I wasn't obsessed with finding my home but finding what actually constituted as a home.
From that point on i've been obsessed with Anthropology and have integrated my passion for archaeology into my world.
Other than all that I eat far too often. Find comfort in Tajine!
