Patrick Andrade is the founder of Relic Fine Art and Photography, and is a Conflict Journalist, photographer, and entrepreneur. His gallery is at 3815 Kalamath St. in Denver, CO 80211.

In 2002, Patrick left to the Pakistan/Afghanistan border to report on the events in the region, and later followed the US Army through Iraq as well.

Patrick has plenty of near-otherworldly experiences from his travels, which inform his unique worldview and perspective--not only on US involvement in the region, but on life in general.

We have a couple beverages and talk about his endeavors in conflict journalism, the experience of traveling, growing up on the front range of Colorado, cannabis genetics in relation to Afghanistan, hash producing, and landraces, and much more.

The discussion continued onto microbiology, psychology, and many of my own interests, but was unfortunately not recorded--hopefully we will have another conversation and can pick up where we left off here.
