ABOUT ME

I am currently posing as a flaneur in Warsaw, although only 2 months ago i was busily occupied as a vaguely capitalist raider living in Dubai, attempting to separate oil from sand.

I love old buildings, decrepit spaces, ruins both modern and ancient man made and from natures destructive prowess.

I have a light fetish for old objects and things that perserve memory.

I studied literature and god waylaid into business which i try to pursue with a creative spirit.

I enjoy travel, but not merely for travel sake or to tick off countries from a checklist. I'm curious about people and wherever there are interesting discoveries to be made and interesting people to make them with I am quite content.

Also I love to cook and am rediscovering my love for the art, especially as a social ritual.

PHILOSOPHY
