Music, Outdoors, Curing Fish, Mycology
I've played guitar and written songs since I was a teenager, it's a creative outlet I'm very happy to have. I've always had a love for the outdoors and a thirst for adventure and exploration, being in nature is also essential in keeping my mental health in check. We had lox and bagels every Sunday growing up, so curing fish keeps me connected to my inner child. I went mushroom foraging in France once while traveling, it opened up a whole world of fascination with fungi, they're just remarkably wild!
