My hobbies include traveling, exercising and doing coffee with people with substance. My goals include traveling more, eventually getting a doctorate in European Studies and working with or for the EU in helping bring up the standards in emerging European countries. What makes me unique is that I can be both serious and substantial at one moment and then boogy down John Travolta style the next! My taste in music is broad, but I have recently acquired a strong taste for Brazilian samba and forro. Otherwise, I’d like to meet a cultured and feminine girl who can challenge me intelligently one moment and be adventurous with me the next. I know I am pretty selective and equally, what I seek is a tough combo to find. However, I am not in a rush. When it happens, it happens.

On a first date I would like to meet the person at the beach and go for a walk on the promenade, possibly bringing my dogs with me. Alternatively, doing coffee would be simple but nice too.
