I've never had a good memory and I've never had a huge attachment to places. But if I have a token of a place or a photo of a time, then I'm able to remember the event more clearly. I collect things from important people and places I go and I've become very sentimental. I…
I guess this is growing up. I've been pretty adamant the past couple years that I wouldn't be buying a house any time soon. Why would anyone settle down? Why wouldn’t you want to move constantly and explore? It’s because moving suckssssss. I've lived in 7 places in the last 5 years. At first, it…
