When once I got to America I fell in love with hippie culture, and I've always wanted to live in the country and grow organic vegetables.

There is a secret hippie within me.

I grew up counterculture. I'm essentially a hippie, and I'm essentially a folkie.

I really relate to middle America, and I love bright, vibrant, unique, interesting personalities.

I'm certainly no bohemian hippie, and I do love luxury.

When you're choosing furniture for your home that's supposed to express who you are, what you are also saying is you want other people to infer what you want them to infer.
