Adventurer is my second name. Cannot imagine my life without challenges, adventures, thrills and being spontaneous. I've been to many countries and believe I can find a common language with anyone on this planet.

I moved to Scotland in 2006, stay in Edinburgh since 2007.

I am friendly, easy going, adventurous, non-smoker, positive, fair.
