About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To continue meeting great people from around the world.

ABOUT ME
I love travel and have been fascinated with the world in all its forms - geography, culture, languages, politics - from a very young age. Meeting and getting to know people from different countries and backgrounds is great, and that's why I think this website is such an amazing idea.
I'm non-religious, vegetarian and interested in politics, languages, travel, movies, cooking and wine. I have a laid back, non dramatic approach to life. Things happen for a reason, sometimes we just have to go with it.

PHILOSOPHY

Live and let live.
