the world is whispering secrets in codes you can crack!

About Me

Come May I will taste this fantastic corner of the universe. First stop Japan, then on to Southeast Asia. Adventures await!I laugh loudly, am desperate to travel Thailand, want to own a vineyard someday, think that dark chocolate and pinot noir are the best things on earth, am smitten with India, love sleeping when it rains, despise commercial pop, wish I could play the violin, envision heaven to be a library with a bar, adore mangoes, find it easier to write when I'm depressed, practice yoga for positivity, writing for sanity and introspection, am obsessed with big earrings and the colour red, hope to find myself living in Spain, think a cheese plate is the perfect dinner, am crushed that I'll never know the 1920s, find cooking theraputic, admire surrealist art, wish I lived in a Toulouse Lautrec painting, think that Rome is fabulous. I know more than I think I know, just as I know less than I want to know.

My Interests

TRAVEL expands the mind. MUSIC creates landscapes of lush emotion. COOKING may be the most blissful form of creation. SEX is healing. SPIRITUALITY must be explored individually. RELATIONSHIPS between men and women we will never fully understand. LOVE bewilders, saddens and amazes me. BALANCE must be sought between solitude and companionship, mind and body, spirit and earth. FILMS, if good, can transform belief systems. ART- creating and observing can be boundlessly therapeutic. FREEDOM- an ideal we'll always fight and die for. WINE- no better taste on earth or cure for most ails.------- TURN-ONS: sitars, sushi, champagne before noon, freedom, low voices, French accents, bats, silent films, chai, boys who wear make-up, wine tastings, Nat Sherman Black & Golds, fortune cookies, big dj headphones, spontaneity, the similarity between the curve of a guitar and a woman's hip, picnics, tango dancing, myths, black and white photography, elegance, hot air ballons, Pelligrino, deja vu, the smell of old books, european cathedrals, hiking solitary in the mountains, chandeliers, walking in the rain, cemeteries, maps, interesting tattoos, peacocks, ambition, snakes, Ray LaMontagne's voice, mojitos, poetry, mixed cds from friends, flasks, karma, Häagen-Dazs rum raisin ice cream, trains, Hindu dieties, biting, Covent Garden in the summer, nightswimming, laughter, getting postcards from far away lands, rainforests, navigating metro systems, satin sheets, panthers, mohawks, surrealism, sprawling porches, oysters, autumn, Bridgette Bardot, fires, compliments, carpe-diem-attitudes, cliffs (heights!), anything vintage, limes, festivals, photos from the '20s, thunder, open-mindedness, kung fu, rollercoasters, Klimt's nudes, epigrams, scars, snorkeling, cheese, tequila, twilight, Skye Edward's voice, jungles, Alfons Mucha prints, thai food, benevolence, Buddhist temples, tiger lilies, planetariums, the ominous ocean.------TURN-OFFS: war, pop music, slow drivers, gym fanatics, obnoxious drunks, close-mindedness, skipping cds, passivity, big cars, pretension, cheesy pick-up lines, prejudice, machismo, most Hollywood films, poor grammar.

I'd like to meet:

Bohemians, backpackers, artists, nomads, shamans, poets, star-gazers, radicals, philosophers, gypsies, nudists, vagrants, filmmakers, wine-lovers, revolutionaries, photographers, pirates, soothsayers, optimists, pessimists, drifters, free-thinkers, outcasts, musicians, neurotics, the intellectual ellite, and other music snobs. -----------------"The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars and in the middle you see the blue centerlight pop and everybody goes 'Awww!'" -Kerouac------------------- MyGen Profile Generator

You're "Cemetary Gates" ! You're smarter
than other people, with their trite
romanticized ideas about things. You have a
wicked sense of satire.

Which Smiths Song Are You?
brought to you by Quizilla
You are Suede. Youre quite introverted and
reserved. You dont like to draw attention to
yourself, which is a shame, as youre very
talented and unique. You enjoy film and
literature for the glamorous characters and
plot lines, which means you can sometimes be a
bit of a romantic.
