a rambling lonely goat

it doesn't matter herman... none of this matters.

About Me

my name is Fernando Soto V (The Fifth) but my friends call me herman.

i was born and grew up in Venezuela. Maturin, 'la cuidad distinta.'

spent my teens and early 20's in florida (561).

culture, history, infinite moments, wisdom, epiphanies, adventures.

i like bars and bookstores better than movie thatres and restaurants.


yeah, i travel alot.
i would rather ask for forgiveness than permission.
re-definition is a formidabble and enigmatic process. quite a daunting conundrum given my position of 'wonder.'
basically, im a genius. and overall im prob better than you.

My Interests

talking, leading people to believe things, listening, reading, driving, small groups of people, singing while driving, drinking, smoking, being intoxicated, learning, teaching, pursuing.

I'd like to meet:

people who are lost but still looking. people who would sit close to a body of water with me and talk about things that blow our minds. girls that are curious and havent used up all their cat lives. drinkers and junkies. people who will ride in the car at night and either sing along or sit quietly while someone else does.

i wanna know you won't you tell me your name the things i wanna show you won't leave you the same i wanna know you i wanna know you i wanna know you

someone who can appreciate this section as a whole.
