About Me


I am on the quieter side, but sometimes am wild and daredevil. Is that balanced?

My name is Roland and I been married for the past 20 years to my love Sabine (Bee) and mother of our 2 sons, Jeremy and Morris. She is the best, supporting my sons and myself to the end. Thanks Bee for putting up with all the mischievous tricks and loud music the rascals and I made you go through. Honi soit qui mal y pense! A big thanks also goes to my pop Claude and to my mom Lilo.

I'd like to meet:

People of all ranks, animals and aliens. And hey, be yourself, that's a good start. Be smart. Be wise. Know who you are or be interested to find out. Laugh a lot. Be a sexy devil, or angel if you prefer. Have a few good stories. But most of all, be peaceful!
