Freddy

Living in New Zealand Journalist, surfer, musician I have a very unfortunate tattoo on my right shoulder which I should get rid of one day. I have a tiny scar on my forehead after an encounter with a decidedly hard concrete wall when I was a kid. I used to have very long hair. I love pasta, burgers as well as fine food such as seared tuna and king fish sashimi. I go to the gym three times a week. I can't play ball sports cause I suck at anything that involves balls. I don't like people who don't respect others. I hate excessive noise (loud cars, chainsaws, firecrackers and hip-hop and techno music in particular). I plant trees to restore a natural reserve behind my house. I grow my own trees (they're all LEGAL). I'd like to be a marine biologist or a botanist. I'd also like to have a hard rockin' band and tour the world, achieve cult status and disband after three awesome records. I love French pastries. I don't like small dogs. My family is the most important thing to me. I have blue eyes. I weigh 104kgs. I don't like labels. I love wearing shorts, tee shirts and jandals (flip flops for Yanks) or no shoes at all. My musical soundscape involves both heavy metal and the soothing sound of jazz. Buddhism sort of appeals to me. I wish I was vegeterian... But I like meat too much. I'd love a house in Tahiti or Fiji or Samoa. Reality TV gets under my skin. I like old Vespas and vintage motorbikes. I can't grow a decent beard. I have ridden through French streets at night on the roof of a car. I went to Los Angeles with $200 to my name and a guitar, got mugged one night near South Central while buying donuts and kicked out of the place I was staying at (illegally) by the local police. All this to try and get into a band. I almost ended up in a pornographic magazine (still while in LA). It was all a misunderstanding... I got arrested once (a long time ago). I wish China would get out of TIbet. I wish the US would get out of everyone's business (except Tibet's and Zimbabwe's). I wish I could stop illegal logging in the tropics. I've been playing guitar for a long time, but still can't play jazz... If you've read this, well done. You might as well send me a message or some money.
