About Me

I'm a 31 year old single guy and I live in Dundee, Scotland. I have the most boring office job imaginable but it keeps the wolves from the door.
My main passions are travelling and going out. I live for my holidays and for the weekend. I go away 2 or 3 times a year, usually to the far east. I'm well into my travelling and I've been to Thailand, Macau, Hong Kong, Singapore, Malaysia and The Philippines in the last year or so.
In August I'm going to Latvia for a few days.
At weekends I can usually be found propping up the bar in some boozer in Dundee's west end.
When I'm not drinking myself into a stupor or sunning myself on some tropical beach I enjoy listening to music and watching quality films. The more alternative the better.
