Life’s a Trip
Don’t Miss the Connections!
what’s happening over here?
I’m interested in how people learn to live with one another.
Everywhere in the world, communities run on quiet agreements — shared ideas about loyalty, honor, respect, and belonging that shape relationships long before rules are written down.
My work explores how these value systems show up in everyday life, from families and friendships to workplaces and institutions.
Through storytelling and cultural exploration, I follow these unwritten codes across places and communities, noticing both the friction and the care they create.
This is a long-term project fueled by curiosity, travel, and a genuine fascination with how social worlds are built.
These are the rules people actually live by.
Not the ones written in law books.
