SUMMONER'S TALES...
"At a certain point in my life I realised there was a kind of homing signal that I was trapped by. We have to go back to the nest and figure out who we are because who we are is really formed in the first few years of our lives and the way you think and the way you behave. So I'm still looking for answers but that's the landscape I dream in still."
