About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To sing a song in an Irish Pub(even if not in Ireland)

ABOUT ME

I'm 32, a fun-loving guy who loves to travel and meet new people! I love being a host to new people and making sure they have a great time! I always hope people will treat me the same way I would treat them if they were in my home: which is AWESOME! I love taking photos and writing, but both hobbies are not always how I pay the bills. Sometimes a guy has to mow some lawns, shovel some walks... etc.

PHILOSOPHY

Go for it
