Mongolia calling

So I've found someone who, on paper, is my perfect man. He's from North Dakota, now lives in Mongolia, and is a novelist and adventurer. I came across his website while looking for something else entirely, as I always do. I'm half-tempted to write to him and say, "I'm from North Dakota! I'm obsessed with Mongolia! I'm a writer!" But that seems just awfully dumb and naive. Besides, how do you start up a relationship with someone who lives in Ulaanbataar? And how do I know he's not really a geek sitting at a computer in Mahwah, New Jersey? But Radigan Neuhalfen, if you're real, drop me a line!
