Wow! So much has been going on these past three months. Right now, I’m settled into my new place, I’m working (for a major corporation) although I hope not for long (working for someone else is just not for me). I’m getting ready to go to Scotland in 2 1/2 weeks and I’m shooting a [...]

Well I’ll be on a flight to Florida in the morning and I’m pretty excited. I’ll be filming my two documentaries, gathering data for the third one, visiting my friends, getting a tattoo and best of all, spending time with my nephew!
