I want to build friendships with people with similar interests and a positive mindset.I like to converse, especially with people from around the world to better understand our cultural diversity. I enjoy travelling and exploring new locations. I have a good knowledge of world affairs and really enjoy discussing topical matters. I'm a history buff, especially military history I enjoy writing poetry.
