About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to meet lots of interesting adventurous people and pay back some karma to those that have helped me

ABOUT ME

I'm quite talkative and open and enjoy adventures and new experiences. I find it hard to really describe myself properly on these cs questions, everybody just ends up putting the same cliche statements! Your better to meet me and find out for yourself!

PHILOSOPHY

Personal philosophy?? Lets do it I'm sure it will be alright.....My wife may sometimes disagree lol!
