CURRENT MISSION

DIY and community!

ABOUT ME

I want to adventure and explore, and meet people who want to do the same. I want real knowledge about the world, how things work, how to do things, earthly, political, spiritual, crafty, intellectual, etc.

PHILOSOPHY

Do what you want now, so you don't have to regret not doing it later. Don't take things personally. Strive to be an honest and clear communicator. The only way to do it, is to do it.
