About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I want to see techno music at clubs and festivals around the world

ABOUT ME

I just sold my house so I am now renting and I'm not sure I can host right now because there are no open beds anymore. I can show you around, time permitting. I am an outgoing and personable individual who typically vacations around the globe when I can. I enjoy social interaction and being immersed in other cultures, no matter how different they are from mine. I do it because I truly enjoy the experience, not because I want to be different or brag about my exploits to others "back home". I do like to travel solo and meet people in other countries. I enjoy sports (especially basketball, American football, and 'English football'. I have been to 17 countries and I look forward to seeing at least 17 more! I am party-person, so I would definitely get along the best with a social animal of the nightlife variety. I currently love the electronic music and contribution to nightlife of Germany and would love to hit up as many European music festivals (did Ibiza) as possible. I like to be intellectually stimulated and I'm a friendly person. I pick up little bits of other languages fairly easily and speak rudimentary Arabic.

PHILOSOPHY

One life to live...live it and let others live theirs.
