Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Around the World (of Europe) in Eighty (well, only 25) Days
ABOUT ME
I'm a freewheeling, philosophical sort. I've been in grad school a couple years, and spend my time either reading and writing philosophical and theoretical texts in psychology and ontology, or going out with friends to have free fun freely. I strive to be equal parts childlike and bold.
PHILOSOPHY
Life should be a playful sort of thing, where with a happy heart we are willing to explore new places, meet new people, do new things, and think new ideas. Through a sort of openness, with a cultivated, carried sense of comfort, we can engage with the people and things around us in unexpected, revealing, and life-expanding ways.
