I’m Tommy but – really – who am I?

From my earliest childhood memories, I have felt as though I was somehow ‘out of place’ in the world. These feelings of ‘not belonging’ have sometimes been painful but have helped shape me into the eclectic human that I am today.

I have always had an insatiable curiosity and a pervasive sense of wanderlust. I have proved successful in many different careers, but find myself becoming uncomfortable when things begin to feel static. More than once I have upended my life, moved vast distances, changed careers, or all of the above at once. 

Life is meant to be experienced and relished, not simply ‘endured.’ 

For me, discovery is the most important part of life: discovery of the world, discovery of other people, and most importantly discovery of myself.

To sum it all up – I consider myself to be a modern day version of the classic “Flâneur.”
