MUSIC, Movies, good food, art, retro style and culture.
I'd like to meet:
Someone who's super creative and marches to the beat of a different drummer, who doesn't confine themselves to 1 or 2 types of music, and who listens to at least some of what I do! Someone who is kick back, drama-free and honest!
If that's you, raise your hand!
