Boredom is the dream bird that hatches the egg of experience. A rustling in the leaves drives him away.
Anyone can be a DJ but it’s understanding how to read a crowd and keeping them on the floor is what takes years of experience.
Italian food is seasonal. It is simple. It is nutritionally sound. It is flavorful. It is colorful. It’s all the things that make for a good eating experience, and it’s good for you.
What keeps me going are my learnings, which I would rather call my ‘experience,’ and my urge to explore.
Dining should be a delightful and a beautiful experience.
I want to do a little bit of everything and really just experience life.

Adolescence is a time in which you experience everything more intensely.
Human experience depends on everything that can influence states of the human brain, ranging from changes in our genome to changes in the global economy.
Every experience makes you grow.
