I am an Aquarius, with all the characteristics of the zodiac. I like living a high pace life thus I am never bored. I am attracted to extremity, creativity, art and I especially like working with people. I am convinced that we have time for everything we want. I also believe that good human relations and quality time make us live a long and happy life if we care about these. I have had my own band (Empty Pubs) for 20 years and I do a lot of sports too. I am married, our three children are grown up, and we are very proud of them!
