Interessi

Drawing, painting, graphic design, writing, web design, really ugly sweaters, wasting time, debating, philosophy, roadtrips, junk shops, vintage hats, pirates and zombies (best in combination), collecting old childrens books, coffee, sleeping, finding the perfect pair of socks. It's a fast-paced life, I tell ya.
