ABOUT ME

I am a 25 year old kid (err 26 in February ). Yes i say kid because i like to play and have fun :) I enjoy Surfing and Kitesurfing, Reading, Writing Physical activities (Jogging, Running, Kayaking..etc) Going to the gym and going out with friends. I have traveled extensively in Europe in the past and in the future hope to do the same for Asia. I plan to take over the world, but only to make others help me find my socks. One can never have too many socks, Especially warm and fuzzy ones. I particularly enjoy hosting people from far away places if not just to hear tales :) I am very approachable, so feel free to shoot off an email if you'd like!

Facebook for people who are worrywarts :)
