About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to finally settle in one nice place, so I can host CSurfers from all over the world

ABOUT ME

I drink black coffee and red wine. I don't eat meat, but I do eat fish. I wear leather gloves and hats. I love swimming and riding a bike, but I'm not very good at either of them.
