Anyone who has ambition and goals in this life. Anyone who isn't a prick or tries to bring other people down. Honest people, people who care about me as much as I care about them. People who are fun and don't suck the life out of you with their negativity. Anyone who loves to celebrate life as much as I do. Anyone who shares my ideals of what a friend should be. Also, I'd like to re-meet that Israeli that I met in the Galileo Hostel dorm in Costa Rica and see all my friends I've met on my travels.
