Chef, musician, poet, taphophile. Looking for like minded individuals to converse, read books and make music. I was drugged from an early age by the romantics- Byron, Shelly, Wordsworth, etc. Later fell prey to the Beats. Chiefly Kerouac and Bukowski. Love photography, particularly actual film, daguerreotypes (yay mercury poisoning) and collodion. Navigating through life making every mistake possible. I have a serious love of antiques- phonographs, typewriters, and cameras - and can generally restore most of them. Also, I have a fleeting interest in gaming (particularly retro; Dos, Atari, etc) not too well versed with modern gaming. Bioshock was pretty cool. Coffee is necessary. Not on here much- you can find me on instagram, same user name.
