My name is Adhiambo Agoro. A being who loves the outdoors, thrives in the simplicities of life, and everything it gives whether in substance, or human form. On days I am not chasing COB deadlines, I am probably on a mountain somewhere being faster, scaling higher, and getting stronger. I write happy and sad poetry + stories sometimes; I think that's a good/fun thing too :). Most days have me on the move from one beautiful place to another trying to find meaning, be light, be my/others' peace, and experience endless bliss.
Great to have you here!
See you around!✨
