I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

"I believe in youth energy, dreaming everything that you wanna be. I believe in having fun with my friends they’re my brothers ‘till the very end. I believe I’ll never compromise and always face everyday with brand new eyes. I believe I believe - I believe in the power that we all have deep inside." - My outlook on life.I play bass in the punk rock band SHIVER. Music is the score to my life. It defines me, motivates me. I wear Vans. Running and biking are my therapy. You can find me in a local bar/pub enjoying good draft beer with a side of Jager. I am a Bobby Flay in the kitchen. Low carb diets really do work. Smiling makes you more attractive. Sarcasm is part of my daily diet. Life is a beach..where else would you want to be. MyGen Profile Generator
