I’m so sick of pretty, I want something true… don’t you? On Wednesday night I grabbed a microphone and recorded another episode of Touchful Podcast. This one turned out different than the first.

I let the world touch me, move me, inspire me through various experiences. Here’s the list of my inspirations from January.
