My name is Ben and I come from Australia. I am 24 years old and I live in a small town near Sydney called Branton.

I don’t have a job now, but normally I clean shop windows. I am not married but I live with my very beautiful girlfriend, Maria, in a nice house in Branton. We don’t have any children…maybe next year.
