About Me

ABOUT ME

Just read my reviews. :)
I like dancing (..particularly salsa), I play piano, like to go out for dinner, love to travel, love to meet friends and people I never met before. Living with my Spanish girlfriend in Valencia. I used to live in Amsterdam, Paris and Palma de Mallorca.

PHILOSOPHY

"Life is either a great adventure or nothing."
