  • Description

    Hey everyone. My name is Albert from New York! I've worked in the tech sector and in pastry arts. I was born in Seoul, South Korea, and moved to New York City when I was two.

    In the past few years I've traveled quite a bit. I want to taste life. Experience what this planet has to offer. Immerse myself in different cultures. See what it's like to be fully human.

    My journey is also a spiritual one. I would like to help heal our collective wounds and stitch together a new fabric from which we can weave brilliant new stories and ways of being. Re-learn what it means to be human, to be alive.

  • What else ...

    I have a feeling that my last days on Earth will be spent on a farm. Also, that I may have been a Buddhist monk in a past life. We'll see how that plays out :)
