torii at sunrise #kyoto #inariyama ⛩️🍁🦊

on january 15th, i went live on twitch for the first time. this is something i’ve wanted to do for many years now, and with the gaming industry job search being as tough as it is, it felt like a solid way to keep myself actively involved in the community 🌟

summer came and went, i moved home after my university graduation to save money, and now my childhood bedroom is becoming a shrine to my favourite video game series. life.

i wish unpacking IRL was as simple as the hit game “unpacking” (2021)

(this is actually the packing mess)

(the unpacking mess is strewn across my parents’ house in an unphotographable manner)
