Santa Monica, California.

World War II military rucksacks. I am obsessed with anything vintage military.

South Africa, Japan and Australia are on the top of my list right now.

 

6. What are you listening to right now?

An Ambient soundscape composed of trash trucks, sirens and ghetto birds.

Definitely winchester mystery house. Look it up, endless nooks and crannies.

A Pilot or a mad scientist
