At first glance, he may seem somewhat reserved, but he has a sharp mind and a fine sense for the mood of others – a true observer. With a wink, he knows when to use his calm aura to make others laugh and when he must show his inner strength. He is not a loud macho, but someone who stands out through reliability and a certain elegant composure.
