CURRENT MISSION

I would like to meet people, go on adventures in areas of cities that most people never see.

ABOUT ME

I'm from Los Angeles, I do photography. I like to laugh, and I like to make people laugh. I enjoy helping others, and love going on adventures. Laughter is music, and food is best when shared with friends. I try to leave things better than I find them if I can.

I'm from Los Angeles, and many people I've met seem to think that I am unlike the typical LA denizen.

PHILOSOPHY

My personal philosophy is as follows:

-Smile
-Drink
-Laugh
-Take Pictures
-and like in any decent video game, If Someone Offers An Unusual Barter, Go For It.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

I have eaten fresh raw sea-urchin (uni), just moments after it was plucked from the clear blue waters of a beach in Hawaii. It tasted light and buttery, with a slight ocean-y aftertaste.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

I can teach photography, how to appreciate Sake, and various interesting and unusual places around LA. I also have a few fun stories to share of my adventures in Hawaii, Japan, and Paris.

Oh yeah, I can also teach some basics of sleight of hand/magic if you are interested :)
