Known for speaking his mind and fighting for freedom. Nicholas Gagnier doesn’t disappoint in his first piece of work, 'A PEACE of My Life.' Nicholas realizes he’s just an ordinary person but not living an ordinary life. When he left the United States for the first time on his 20th birthday. It was March 30th, 2003; only days after the second Iraq War (World War 4? 19?) had begun. Traveling across Europe for 106 Days, his journal accompanied him, and documented his incredible experiences. As his eye opening and life changing moments occurred they sparked and fueled his creative purpose. In his first publication, Nicholas Gagnier shares his journey of dynamic adventures of excitement, love, & PEACE with his readers through the passages of his European journal. When Nicholas returned home to the United States of America, he had a yearning for political change, and an inspiration for creativity. During the summer of 2005, in Manchester Tennessee, at the Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival, Nicholas’ filming aspirations took off. With the United States of America falling into tyranny under President George W. Bush, Nicholas’ involvement in political activism grew larger. He couldn’t and wouldn’t be content anymore. He had choices to make. Throughout Nicholas’ fight for freedom & liberty in America, his desire for creating films continued as his political beliefs brought him closer to the political structure and a 2008 Presidential Candidate for the United States of America.. As time manifested Nicholas Gagnier becomes more philosophical and poetic about his life and the current world. When he embarks to Costa Rica years later, he realizes he may never return home.
