About Me

???????????WWU?????????????????????????????????????????????? I am a friendly person that knows what he wants. I am currently busy with school and work, but would give up some of my time for the right person. I do not know if I am looking for a really seriuos relationship right now, but I am not totally against it with the right person. I enjoy the outdoors and the simple things in life. A nice sunset, the early morning natural songs of the wilderness, or just enjoying the wonderful place we live in. I love the outdoors and am a pretty active person. If I was not a full time student I would be surely spending more time enjoying the outdoors and the company of other wonderful people. I am just really looking for a few good friends that I can share some of my time with. I am pretty openminded and seek people that can help to bring the best out in me.

My Interests

Poets, lovers, philosophers, great minds, and great hearts. People who follow their hearts. Ones that are not afraid to truely be themselves inside and out. Ones that do not take no for an answer. People that can bring out the best in me and hopefully I can bring out the best in them.
