About me
“…I climbed on the back of a giant albatross which flew through a crack in the clouds to a place where happiness reigned all year ’round and music played ever so loudly.” My mother escorted me to school on the first day I was due to attend. When she was out of sight, I turned around and walked right back out of the school gates. I’ve been walking away from “adult world” processing ever since. Tore up all my school certificates. Lived in a commune for two years. I love walking in mountains and across big hillsides lined with trees (one reason why I’m in Austria, though I’m not a native, I’m from the UK). The handle “Midnite Toker” says more about the Pompitous Of Love than smoking dope (I never inhale).

I buy a few khaadi (homespun) items such as kurta and lunghis. Prices are reasonable in Margao's khaadi shop across from the Municipality.
