Story

“We don’t understand where our food and our air come from anymore, and I think that is a problem for people living in cities. Of course, we can’t expect people all to live in hydroponic greenhouses in their flats, but we should get ourselves closer to the foods that we eat and the flavors that we taste,”

We cannot abandon the generations of tomorrow. This is my home.

Strength in Music

I am not looking to take sides; I am willing to take a stand. For me it is about the values and processes that choose our political leadership, not who that leader is ultimately.

We cannot abandon the generations of tomorrow. This is my home.

Seeing the challenges that the people had, I wanted to be of help.
