I am a down-to-Earth person, who doesn't like games or pretending or hypocrisy. I'm honest and direct, sometimes to a fault, and also very sensitive and empathical with other people. I know my believes, opinions, and values, and am aware that other people have different views and values. For me, that makes it so interesting and enriching to be with other people. I know my strength and weaknesses, and accept those of others as part of who they are. I'm very curious about how and why people are the way they are. Talking and exchanging thoughts, feelings, opinions is very important for me. I love to laugh and take things in an optimistic and positive way. However, that does not mean that I ignore real and serious aspects - they are given my fullest attention in understanding, empathy, and time. Details and nuances, causes and effects of interpersonal relationships mean a lot to me.
I love life, and I love my work. I love to relax: cooking a nice meal, going for a walk, reading a nice book, listening to nice music (classical, jazz, world, opera, oldies), sipping a glass of good wine and contemplating the world and mankind as a whole. I am European, and have great affinities for all things European - culture, cuisine, mentality.
I'm looking to meet people. If there will be mutual interest, we might become friends. If there will be some kind of chemistry, we might become more than friends. But if not, - at least we'll remain friends.
