Best known for | My ability to make any guest feel at home, my love for karaoke and my caffeine addiction.
Favourite “at work” memory | When a group of Americans came three days in a row to my bar to see me, then invited me to party on the 4th day at the bar that I ended up working at later that year, and came back six months later to visit me. They’re coming back again next week, three years later, but only if I take the weekend off to party with them.
