When traveling it’s easy to feel like you are never settled, luckily I’ve figured out the hack of a lifetime. Bring all of your favorite things, photos of people and things that make you happy, books, trinkets, records. Make sure they are all in a separate suitcase that’s really heavy and every time you go to the airport, TSA makes you take it out on the floor, so that it’s as inconvenient as possible. For example, everywhere I go I bring a photo of Charlie Christian, a Beatles record, a Rimbaud Book, little stringed beads and arrange them like a shrine.

A hectic life sometimes necessitates a physical reminder of where we’ve been. A kitschy souvenir measures its worth not in its quality or design, but rather in its narration of a life well-traveled.

One of the greatest obsession of my life: finding strange (natural or artificial) objects. Any country I’ve been to, any landscape will have a different assortment- flavour- vibe to the collection they offer.
Bonus points if you bring them home and amass a huge collection that spreads your surfaces like a new virus. Let nature and human trash take over. Make your therapist worried about the state of your mental health. Turn your apartment into the miniature random exhibit you’ve always dreamt of.

Having a collection of a specific item a fun and rewarding pastime that gives you something to buy as a souvenir when you're abroad instead of some tacky gift shop garbo, but more importantly, it gives people more opportunities to give you gifts. I collect vintage Playboys (sex appeal), crystals (not for the mysticism, I just like geology), and hands (glass, wooden, pendants, etc). Now when people find one of these items, they will think of me and get it for me as a gift. Create as many opportunities to receive gifts as possible, as it's many people's love language. They won't be so embarrassed to gift if they can play it off like they're just adding to your very important collection. Cultivate opportunities for love to grow.

She’s like my Keith Richards of acting. When I watched possession for the first time her beauty and talent really blew me away. The choices she makes are superior and I can never get enough of her.

This one’s important. Go on your music platform of choice, play an artist you like and then click on a recommended artist that you don’t know. Repeat this process over and over until you are satisfied.
