Description

I`m an American that has been living / working in Germany for over 25 years .Before this life I was a backpacker who traveled mostly solo in many parts of the world.Happiness can come in many ways,alone in nature ,meeting new people while traveling,or entertaining friends with a nice meal.Being happy is my main goal in life,and I think I have achieved this. I`ve been teaching English for the past 25 years and this has brought me into contact with literally thousands of people. I have a natural ability to connect with many different types of people. At this point in my life I`m mostly interested in helping people, somewhere that is interesting to me .I have many, many hobbies,and interests.When all is said and done I`m happiest when I`m making people laugh or think.
