About Me
I'm a Rom of the Romani folki (Gypsy people). Unlike the vast majority of modern Romanies, the Natsia I'm associated with are followers of the Old Ways. If you want to get to know my beliefs better, feel free to join my board at Roma Old Ways.
I'm a father of three beautiful and gifted princes, and husband to my gorgeous Romni, Rhiannon.

TV
Television sucks the sweat from a dead man's balls. I try to avoid it as much as possible, specially now that I have my own children. I remember the way I was raised... using my imagination, playing outside, discovering all sorts of freaky things in the bush and the garden, exploring, getting hand's on. Ah, those were the days... what am I saying! I still play around like that. XD

Hobbies
Singing escapades in the shower, though I sound like a squashed frog with a sore throat; Dancing like a crazed freak - people call it "beastial"; smelling things - anything really; channelling artworks; pushing the flesh I am to the limits.
Vices
*looks askance at hairy palms* Errrr... I don't have any.
Virtues
I've been told I'm a good father and husband. That is all that matters to me really.
Hi everyone... I'm posting to let everyone know that our trip from USA to Australia went super smoothly. No complications. We arrived on the 17th of July and since we have been running around like crazy trying to sort everything since we are starting afresh.
I mean, AFRESH. So far, we have settled down into a nice home. We have furniture and appliances (thank the gods!). We'll be obtaining a car soon so that's going to be a plus. It's been really nice to ride my bike around, specially when I'm surrounded by bush and a laid back rural town.
I'm currently continuing my studies at uni doing a BA. When the time comes I will definitely be posting pictures of my most recent artworks and of the new area we're in.
I became facinated with the Romani ways after seeing a presentation on them by noted Wiccan author Ray Buckland (who, himself, is of Romani blood...he was the first Buckland to be born in a house).
I wonder....have you ever heard of the Tarot Tzgane? It purports to be a "Romani Tarot Deck", but one can never be too sure of cultural claims these days...
Stopping by to wish you and yours a wonderful week!
