About Me


CLICK HERE TO GET A PRE-MADE LAYOUTCurious and always looking to learn about something new and exciting, I love to travel to interesting destinations, places that are maybe not on the radar but have their own charm and uniqueness; best kept secrets! I enjoy nature and the outdoors, any season, most conditions, alone or with my friends. I am a brother, son, friend, lover, dreamer, climber, dancer, photographer, artist, writer, student, teacher, thinker, contemplator, and philosopher. I love music and art, the opera, the theater, books, live music, quiet galleries, and intimate dinner parties. Some people have said I am "spiritual" but I think that refers to my ability to see beauty in most things and to love and appreciate the differences that make us all very similar. I prefer harmony and congruence, although I am resilient and adaptable to the chaos that life brings. I can't laugh enough, at myself mostly, but with my family and friends too. I am a risk-taker and an adventure seeker who makes very calculated decisions. I'm mostly rational but always open to discussing my moments of irrationality. I have many levels to the depth of my personality but on the most visceral level I am a passionate man that has been in love four times with two people. I kiss everyone I meet and upon greeting or departing, I kiss again. I drink extra dirty martinis and red wine and believe in the "work hard, play hard" ethic. My friends think I'm wild, my parents think I'm wonderful, some people may think I'm weird, I think I'm far from ordinary. What do you think?

"...the only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to be saved, desirious of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, 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 everbody goes "awww..."
