I am here for Friends

About Me

i live in rome where i do reasonably well. i am the manager of a bar in testaccio called On the Rox and that takes up most of my time and i love it. i left everything in the states because i wanted mine to be a life that i would envy in a book. i am proof that chasing one dream usually means losing the others. i am singular and independent and think that it's too bad that this doesn't afford more admiration.i am not really that deep, but i am intelligent. i have a hard time thinking that my life is important enough to be shrouded in privacy and tell everyone everything sometimes at great personal expense.I drink too much and laugh a lot.

My Interests

Art of all kinds (dance, opera, theatre, visual, etc.), art restoration, travel, knowing lots about religion, laughter, laughter, people who make me cry laughing... i think thats the biggest one...
