About Me


I am cigány not just in blood but in soul. I am a mutt like most americans and honor those connections maybe more then most. Mitakuye Oyasin! I like to rant about nonsense though sometimes I am being serious and then you will think I am ambiguous. I don't like to be in any place for to long so I am often on the road seeking adventure. I like spell check and my voice recorder because my memory is that of a old mans probably inherited from my father. I love dry spanish red wines, dry humor, spicey chiles, and hot springs. I guess I am product of growing up in New Mexico around passionate shit talkers and tribalism.

My Interests


Inspiration, Tai Chi Chuan, Pa Da ‘Qi’ Gong, astral projection, teleportation, meditation, genealogy, libations, neuropsychology, French, Romanian, Ojibwe, photography, spooning, Romani music, film, music!!!, playing the guitar and balalaika, composing music, travel, laughing, good beer, beach sand, lucid dreaming, and talking shit.
