CURRENT MISSION

meet great (grand) people, share ideas, and more.... …… to learn about Irish history and maybe take a bit of the Irish spirit, maybe meet my lost Irish relatives

ABOUT ME

curious, respectful, travelled, cultured, wants peace, more interested about you, for a photo see jovanotti an italian singer that has caused a few Italian people confusion, I have not embraced the typical life of a mortgage and a car I am always hoping to settle down in Italy

PHILOSOPHY

try to be yourself, try to connect and not divide, avoid cults and political parties, and as for religion -well for me religion is advice and at the moment advise is difficult as things are complicated, Hippocartes said let food be your medicine - Healthy body, healthy mind, and the future is with the youth, i think we need to put more responsibility with the youth, but I am against blame and don't agree with the strategy of protests blaming people as we need to look at ourselves more
