Can't comment on interesting as he wasn't too chatty when I met him (to be fair, I was a bit late because I went to the wrong address). He's certainly likeable enough- I'm not sure what it would take to make someone "abnormally" likeable.

Passion. In my first career, I enjoyed it and did very well but wasn't passionate about it. Then I had a near-death experience (knifed in the throat in a homophobic attack) and it made me look at my life. I realised that I was doing a job I was bored by and was looking at decades more work. I'd always been passionately interested in a different career, but hadn't studied it after school because I couldn't afford the 5years of training. I used savings, bursaries etc to retrain and supported myself working nights in a care home and as a masseur. It was a long, hard 5 years and totally worth it. I'm still in my new career 15 years on and I'm still as passionate about it as I was when I first started. Go passion, without a doubt.

I find it weird to be asked for a picture. It's only happened to me once, when I was visiting Munich last year. Guy on RM who looked great in some photos that were a few years old. He refused to send a more recent photo, which was ok, but then insisted that I send a photo. I stopped contact there. All of the handful of top/vers guys in Munich on RM were weird or flaky. One got offended that I was talking to other escorts. One arranged to meet, was in contact up until a couple of hours before and then nothing until an "oops I forgot message the next day". Strange city.

I prefer the old version, mainly because the Map Me function works on my phone, but doesn't on the new version.

Chris is great, if you can get to meet up with him. He's bad at responding to messages and cancels appointments at the last minute, even after arranging with a deposit ( to be fair, he will refund the deposit immediately). I also really liked the directness of his profile and had a lot of fun the time I met him, but gave up on trying to arrange further meets because of the communication issues. He's definitely worth meeting, but have an Option B in case he flakes.
