ABOUT ME

Two laidback guys on a 7 month journey through many european countries. We're 4 months in, but running out of money fast!
I love to explore, city or wilderness. I believe the ancient Romans referred to me as 'permirificissimus' In frontcountry I love to cook (Indian/cuban is my favorite!), listen to music, drink cider, and make puns. In backcountry I mostly love to hunt for mushrooms and other wild edible plants, make weird noises knowing nobody is around, and do things involving primitive living.

Teach, Learn, Share

I know lots about mushrooms and foraging! and I'm currently on a question to learn the main 88 constellations. I know plenty of random facts too. I speak spanish. and I'm really good at popping the plastic bubbles that come with packages. I'm pretty much an expert.
