About Me

CURRENT MISSION

"I want a wisdom that wise men revere" - Maxi Jazz

ABOUT ME

I run a bar, which is both enjoyable and entertaining... It's nice to have a job that I enjoy, it seems as though there are too many people who can't say the same of themselves... I currently own three race horses! Crazy I know!! 2 beautiful fillies and a colt... they're all young so full of potential... Fingers Crossed!

PHILOSOPHY

No regrets...

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

As I have traveled extensively in North America, Asia, Europe & South America, I have been treated very well by couches... what goes around comes around... Thanks to all the stars that have hosted me!
