My Interests

Cars, motorcycles, beer, but not mixed together. Friends, family, my pets, and enjoying life.

I'd like to meet:

I would like to meet/connect with old classmates and anyone else who I may have known in the past. Don't hesitate to send a message and tell me how the years have treated you.
As for new people, feel free to drop me a line. But write before you request an addition to your "Friends". I won't accept just so you can have eleventy billion "friends".
Wenn Sie in Berlin leben, und möchte reden, schickt bitte mir eine Nachricht. Ich lerne Deutsch, damit bitte, leicht auf mich zu gehen.
