Solitude turns me on... and then there's no one to do it with.

About Me

My father told me yesterday that men find their identity from what they do and women from their environment.My immediate environment includes: my brick row home in south philly, my satvvic yellow bedroom, my pittbull Burroughs, my yoga asana hardwood floor, my spicy vegan kitchen, my nerdy housemates, my oboe corner, my basement woodshop, my concealed mohawk, and my 10-speed bike.Lately what I've been doing is: travelling to foreign countries and states (not cananda), woodworking, dog running, building a house-show space, reconstructing my peronality, becoming more of myself, meditating, teaching yoga, cooking vegan thai food, cutting paper with sharp scissors, contemplating the choice to be satisfied, reading out-loud, listening to polish pegan folk, dancing alone in my living room, and itching for my next tattoo...

My Interests

celebacy, breathing, solitude, women, ignoring everything that does not matter, distrusting men/punks/strangers, loving my family, ayurveda, yoga, sattvic food, my dog, architecture, paper cutting... but all this could change tomorrow.

I'd like to meet:

The American River Train Bridge was set on fire yesterday. The mushroom cloud blocking the fuck sun in parts of the city still remains today, for the most part, because the fire still burns! It's inte...
