Tech Nerd 🤓 - Gay :verified_gay: - Gym-goer 🏋️ - Outdoorsy 🧗

Chill, friendly and slightly shy person who's just getting back into the online social world after a couple of years away from it all.

I'll probably mostly post about interesting things happening in my life, news I find relevant, the odd selfie here and there and the rare achievement I might manage.
