About Me:
Suffering from a recurring case of wanderlust and a penchant for ugly Soviet buildings. If you've familiar with either, we should talk.
I spend every summer running a cafe/ice cream parlor at a dance camp in Sweden, just north-east of Stockholm. Once in a while I get to do some dancing, too.
Some Herrang memories...

Who I Want to Meet:
A woman who is honest, smart, sexy, well-travelled, witty, and adventurous. Or some combination thereof.
Anyone who owns an Italian gelato machine.
Someone who can teach me how to play the bandoneon.
The guy who runs MUNI, so I can tell him how much it sucks.

We all sit about thinking... 'jeez I wish I
could live abroad for a few years'.. then
Mike calls from some god-forsaken town
in Eastern Europe and rubs your nose in
it. Enough about his extensive travels..
Mike is calm and collected. He's so
nice you get fooled into believe he really
not a bad boy... but he is. Watch out
ladies. This man has got it all.. even
cool friends like us! =) If you meet him,
encourage him to write a book. He's got
some CRAZY stories. Oh and he aint to
shabby on the dance floor neither.
I raise my glass to you sir.. If only we
could all live life so fully.
Harold Ramis taught that class to
sing "Da Doo Ron Ron"? Now you know
Mike's inspiration.
way but ... *sigh* I love hapa
boys... ;)
the rest of us think would be cool to
do sometime, he just off and does...
Helps that he's not hung up on that
whole "career" thing... bummer that it
means he's gone a lot!!!
back?!!
