About Me

Hi, I'm Dave. Soy un chico tranquilo, but IÂ´m always ready to take action on just about any wild and ridiculous idea. I have few inhibitions, a big smile, and a healthy dose of spunk. I love listening to stories, getting lost, and losing myself in unbridled, gasping laughter. Clowns, however, terrify me. Do not message me if you are a clown --unless you're with the Patch Adams Institute(which actually exists!), then I suppose you're OK--but I'll be watching you... ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------- IÂ´d like to consider myself a servant. I strive to be a catalyst aiding others in actively exploring their passions and ideas. Overall, I like people, life, adventure...and possibly lamp.------------------------------------------------------- I've recently returned from my South American wanderings (take a look down for pics). IÂ´m temporarily residing in Chicagolandia for a few months to help out with my family while my Pop's recovering. If anyone's connected with outlets around Chicago to practice my Spanish & volunteer teaching English--I'm in the market.------------------------------------------- Before too long, though, I'll be making my way back South to Buenos Aires getting factories back opened for workers & teaching English to pay the bills.
