Trip to Monaco and Mysterious Rich Man

30 min drive from Nice and you'll arrive in Monaco!

In one of the richest country in the world, we met this mysterious, richest man I've ever met in my life. He was something ralated to F1 (of course), but did not ask exactly what he was doing. ( I didn't want him to think that I'm interested in him)When we met this guy, he was carring a big bear body (he said he hunted up in Swiss mountain) and was about to take this to his storage.

Anyway, we were lost so asked him the direction and also if he know any good place for a cafe. Then he offered his apartment to have a coffee. We thought about it for a little bit, and decided to take a look because not everyone can see a apartment in Monaco! We followed him with curiosity and arrived at the entrance 1 min walk from the Palace. Wow, who can live in such a place!? His place was 2nd and also 4th floor of the building, loved arts especially paintings. He had many many paintings on the wall, probably incredibaly expensive. Surprising thing was that he hired this Russian artist for 2 years to paint just for him, payed for his rent and salary. wow... (below is view from his room)

Another info I found out is that he just broke up with his wife, and looking for a girlfrind(s). I'm sure he can get anyone he wants but I felt a little sorry for him. He was interested in us, and it was obious that he was not interested in us personally but just wanted to have... you know, physical relationship. What was surprising was that he asked us to spend the night together so directly without any hesitation (and was shortly after arriving at his place) so was shocked to answer his question. He probably has difficulty finding a woman he really loves or a woman who really loves him from bottom of her heart and not for money.

Anyway, there was not so much to do and see in Monaco, unless you are a big fan of cars. It's a place you would like to go once in your life to say "I've been there!" but no more than once. Oh, but I'm talking about as a tourist so it's a different story if you are going to live. Not everyone can live, only the selected ones and probably one of the safest country in the world (but of course you pay for that).

This is such a strange experience, but probably a little scary when it happened.

I'm sure you guys must have talked about it all evening that day :)

That's funny. So what was his reaction when you said you wouldn't spend the night. Did he turn cold? Or perhaps you stayed! You didn't actually say. I wonder who he was. No clues? Not Michael Schumacher was it?!?

Well, it was not scary that much. He was not pushy, he was more like "it they stay good, if not that's okay" I guess he doesn't need to try hard to be with a girl.
It was more like a "game" to him. So, he did not turn cold, same as before.

I should've asked his full name.. he is not Michael Schumacher, but had similar first name..
