�Hello All!

Just wanted to drop a line in and let all of the mm'ers know that I am moving to Madrid in August. A full month away I know, but I wanted to get a leg up on finding friends. You see, I get real lonely if I don't have anybody to talk to, and it is never a good idea to drink alone. I am a nice guy and loads of fun to be around. Really. I'd even go so far as to say that I am the nicest guy I know since the last time I met somebody nice.

Also, I am looking for a place to live. Something grand with lots of natural light, with a tub I can stretch out in. Willing to settle for a spare closet in an already full apartment.

�Did I mention employement? You see, a job would be nice too. I am a photographer by trade, and a starving artist by default. My mom says I can do anything if I put my mind to it. I am fluent in english, naturally, and am learning spanish by the truckload. I recently became a spanish citizen and must learn fast.

So if you are in Madrid, or will be in Madrid, or if you know somebody in Madrid, please let me know. Especially if you want to be my friend. Or rent me a room. Or give me a job. Even if you can only point me in the right direction, that would be close enough. Posts here will be checked every few days as I begin the pilgrimage again early next week.

Can't help with a job but am looking for an artist for an ongoing project which would result in some financial renumeration. Problem is finding the right one - very specific profile needed. Let me know if you want more info.

Meanwhile, I am moving to Madrid Sunday 19th so when you get in town I'll be happy to share a tapas and cerveza.... Smiler

tarquin,

By all means give me more info. If it is not appropriate to the board you can always send me an email direct to alkaemia@matynka.com.

And thank you for replying to such a blatant solicitation of good will.


elguapo.

i like drinking, chatting, making new friends, seeing art, writing stuff. also i am thinking of taking a photo course this summer. considering the above, i'd be happy to meet up with you.
can't help you with work, unless you are into english teaching, then i can give you some advice.
as for housing, see madridinsider, he is the pro there.

so, post again when your due date is and we'll make an mm get together!
cheers,
candela
