Devin and I
My view, my view , it's where I hide up in the woods ! Tell me it's not breath taking.
Antiques. Vintage furniture and clothing. Glossy sassy jewelry. Music. Paintings by Granny. 1920's and 1930's photography. Baking cookies. Colombian paintings.I love naked little fatty's they're the best. Solo dance parties in my living room. The view from my deck at Sunset. Elephants. City skylines. The retro tape deck in my Pathfinder. Mango's and Raspberries. Singing off key.
A town to escape to that requires no stress, over thinking, or discipline. Artistic, loud, fun, like minded people.
A kind hearted, sexy, tall, coffee drinking, book reading, avid music lovin, man. And a way to get me back to Paris for a two week vacation, preferably in the next year or so.
Anyone who has ever traveled to Colombia.
