ABOUT ME

I'm the guy that is always joking around and trying to make people laugh. Sometimes very sarcastic sense of humor, but I'm trying to get it under some control. :-)

Anyway, my big thing is exploring places that are out of the way and not so crowded. I love to cook and try out new restaurants. I studied filmmaking so I am a big film geek and love to discuss good movies. I need good food, good people, and good entertainment. I'm a super honest person, this can be good and bad depending on the situation.
Also very interested in history and geography. If you know your stuff we will get along!

PHILOSOPHY

Work hard and play hard! I do both of those while dancing like Mick Jagger, drinking, and holding coconuts.
