1. What do you smell like right now? 

Joop – that’s my go to cologne.

2. How would your last partner sum you up in three words?

Utterly unattainable, sadly.

3. What’s the most troublesome thing you did as a child?

I stole something once but I put the thing back in the shop because I felt bad. To be honest, I’ve never been into doing bad things. I like being a good guy and I’ve been like that since I was a kid. I’ve always had a good moral compass and the strength of mind to follow through. 

4. Who’s the weirdest celebrity you ever had a crush on?

Shirley Bassey or Sade. I’ve always been attracted to sophisticated and intelligent women and both women are great examples of those qualities. 

5. Ever punched a stranger?

No, I’ve never had to. No one has never taken it far enough for me to punch them. They always back down. I know how to diffuse a situation but equally know how to end the situation if required.
