Flying would be easier, but it's so 2009...I'd rather go for something new. | Quote: | |  | | | I heard you had a nice motorcycle could you please leave it to me on your will.

hmm...I would be freer in a few months time and then perhaps. Although I'm not 100% on Gambia per se. What kind of music do you like?

Ever since I read about the "Ash, Kent to Tashkent" challenge, I would love to do a roadtrip like this.

What kind of music do you like? | | | | | As previously mentioned..I'm flexible. I like all sort of music...although my key interest are reggae, latin, some opera, some arabic and hip hop.
What destination would entice you?

How old are you by the way? Being a dashing young man in my early twenties, I wouldn't feel very safe with a beardy weirdy old man |
