About Me

I love capoeira. This is me in the video below.
Capoeira In Shinjuku

Add to My Profile | More Videos

I've lived in Tokyo for the last couple of years. I'm currently working at a Japanese law firm. My offical job title is "translator", but actually almost all of my work is checking patent applications. I take Capoeira lessons 2-3 times a week and an acrobatics class once or twice a week (depending on how motivated I am). I used to do karate and breakdance, but don't have so much time for it anymore (although I still like to go out and dance my ass off). My other "hobbies" are DJing and singing karaoke. Pretty standard stuff... ^_^ I also like to travel. Countries I've been to: US, Mexico, England, Bahamas, Jamaica, Belgium, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, France, Italy, Spain, Japan, Taiwan, Thailand Countries I'd like to visit: China, Austrailia, Korea, Nepal, India, Egypt
This video is me and my friend Clay trying to dance after several rounds of tequila, resulting in a couple badly attempted moves. At times... quite un-smooth.

My Interests

I mentioned the main ones already, but to list a couple more... I'm into watching K-1, Pride, and Pancrase. Any kind of sport where someone can get an ass whoppin laid down on them. However, I myself am not a violent person in any regard. I also like music (of course), but more specifically breakbeats and hip-hop.

I'd like to meet:

Anybody is fine... I'm not real picky about my company recently. Unless you are a japanophile, who watches anime and thinks everything japanese is cool. In that case, talk to someone else about it. lol

Dropping weight... (again)

So, some of you might remember my efforts last year to slim down. Well, I was pretty successful in that I dropped 15 kg (1 kg = 2.2 lbs so that's a little over 30 lbs) and I even maintained it for ab...
