The South Bend Bachelor. Who Wants A Rose!!

About Me

Hi my my name is Christiaan. Welcome to My Space. com page. For me, life is about wanting something greater than yourself. Fighting for what you want and fighting for those you care about. Growing up with a learning disability, people never really expected as much from me, but I took it as my mission and I became more than even I thought possible. One of the biggest things I’ve learned along the way is that regardless of whether I’m talking to a CEO or the person bagging my groceries, everyone deserves the same respect. I like to entertain people and make them feel like they’re part of the joke, even if it means making myself the butt of it. I’ve even gone as far as to paint myself and play “baby hulk” just to get a laugh. Giving back to the community has always been important to me. I’ve never been great a tennis, but I played in a community league when I was 12. Now, I’m the league’s sponsor. I hope they have a better serve than me. Also you can IM me at Yahoo MSN.Good luck to everyone

My Interests

I enjoy all sports including running(former college athlete), lifting weights, basketball(this white boy can jump), tennis, and swimming. Beside sports, I love to read anything that I can get my hands on from Papa Hemmingway to news from wall street to the latest men health magazine. I love to travel. throughout my life, i have visited many countries and no rare for me to jump a plane , train, to see something new or someone new.

I'd like to meet:

I’m looking for the girl next door who’s all grown up. She’s got a passion for the world that goes beyond herself and a faith in something greater than she can fully understand. Ideally, I’d love to meet someone with a unique style who shares my passion for art and culture. If you like to take care of yourself and stay fit because you know you’re worth the effort, then I like the way you think. If you’re looking for the kind of person you could start a family with, it sounds like we might be on the same path. If you’re passionate about travel whether that means taking off for Rio, or just for a weekend escape to a cabin in Wisconsin, then it sounds like we might be kindred spirits. So send me a note and let’s find out if we’re meant to be.embed
