"steelnerves" (or simply "steel") isn't just my jango user name but what my close friends started calling me after we did some scary things in the past. i'm American/

French/Spanish,6ft 3in,205 lbs,muscular but just so(not yucky),have dark blond hair and grey eyes,totally straight and "single" single by choice. i have Ivy League degrees in Business Economics and International Finance and spend half my time working in my family's business and the other half traveling while getting some work done through the net whenever and wherever i can. i started traveling the world with my parents when i was only 4yrs old and on my own i've been to 161 countries so far,still a long long way to go. i prefer wild and lonely places to explore and i've climbed the highest mountain in 5 of the 7 continents and 11 of the 14 highest mountains of the world (over 8000 meters) but i feel perfectly at home in cities 'cause that's where i do business and put my education to good use.

i call the US,France,Spain and the Philippines "home" with equal affection.

i can be down-to-earth or intellectual,rugged or sophisticated,depending on who i'm with. i take friendship very seriously and i lead a group of guys who are fiercely loyal to me and to one another.aside from belonging to the same social circle the one thing we have in common is our love for life,living one day at a time and savoring every minute of it.we drink only table wine with meals,we don't smoke or do drugs or have tattoos and body piercings but we're cool with guys who do. we just want to be always sober and alert to do the kinds of extreme guy stuff we do,to enjoy the excitement each day of life brings.

only five people in jango know me and have seen me in person and until some others become my real friends,i want to keep things that way. my family values

privacy,shuns publicity and forbids me from being on twitter or facebook or even showing my pics in jango. but pics or no pics,i am very very real.

business,traveling and exploring,mountain climbing,mixed martial arts,sailing,scuba diving,surface water sports(surfing,windsurfing,wakeboarding,jet skiing,etc)

spelunking,flying,sky diving,wingsuit flying,hot air ballooning,hang gliding,big biking,skiing,car racing,motocross...when i'm not working or doing extreme sports i read a lot or listen to music and when i'm home in any of my cribs, i

play music with my buds,swim in the pool,tend to my pets and plants,do tons of stuff in my hobby room,but i do have time for meditation.

...i love nature and i try to do my share to have it protected and preserved.
