About Me

Let's boil this down: A Lover of Life, a Lindy Hopper, Charleston Lover, Jazz and Big Band Music and History Nut, Clothing and Retail Aficionado, German and Spanish speaker ( and soon to be Japanese), Vintage Clothing and Style Consultant, A Thinker, A Conversationalist, A Lover Of The Free Trade Coffee Shop, and a Future World Traveler!Favorite Quote: "Swing is willful participation with style and groove... and if you check it out., listen to it , listen to what the musicians are saying, it will invite you into it! It's not telling you to stay away! It's telling you to come in! COME IN!" - W.Marsalis Another Quote: "Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than the ones you did. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. DISCOVER!" - Unknown

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

I'd like to meet my soulmates: friends and lover. I am attracted to people who have diversified interests and a passion for life. People who are constantly setting goals for themselves, who are motivated to pursue more out of life, passionate about their interests and who can spread the joy and pleasure of life to others! I'm always willing to try new things and I love it when people share their inner workings with me. True friendship and love is not an easy thing to find, but when you do, it means so much to me and I hold it in high regard. I am a romantic at heart and enjoy others who feel the same way.More specifically however, I'd like to meet fellow swing dancers, jazz lovers, travelers, international culture lovers, and multi-lingual people (German and Spanish are my second and third language).
You scored as dixiland, you are dixiland jazz...you would like best to live in New Orleans and play old school jazz with people like Louis Armstrong. You are the classic, and the catalyst.
