Photography, music, drawing, grafitti & photorealistic art, nature, driving, traveling, science, politics (as corrupted as they are...), archeology, astronomy, astrology, astro-theology, mythology, architecture & design, urban planning & public transportation, and meteorology. I also love sneakers for some reason.
Cool individuals who like to have fun and have a good laugh. People who are serious about their lives who understand that they're connected with others on this planet and with all things that live on earth. People who keep it real and positive.
