I would describe myself as someone who's outgoing and fun, while at the same time very grounded and focused. Conversation, even small talk, usually comes easy for me, given that I love to laugh and meet new people. I have strong values, and am a good friend and listener, and really try to live by the motto “Treat others as you yourself wish to be treated.”

Some of my favorite things are traveling, especially off the beaten path, documentaries and foreign films, photo exhibits, classic rock, meeting up with friends.

While dating is fine and has its purpose, I’ve reached a point that I’m ready to meet that “special someone” who shares my values and outlook. I’m looking for someone well educated, knows how to relax and have fun, and reads more than the sports pages.
