About Me

"Hear me! For I am such and such a person. Above all, do not mistake me for someone else."
- Friedrich Nietzsche"For thought is a bird of space, that in a cage of words may indeed unfold its wings but cannot fly."
- Kahlil GibranThis is true not only of thought but also of feeling and personality. The opportunity to reduce oneself to words is a daunting task. While you might ask who I am this one time, I ask the question to myself on a regular basis.The deepest sense of who I am probably doesn't concern an casual online aquaintance but this profile should suffice. I am a listener, a reader, a thinker and a writer. I spend time outdoors when I can and find it both relaxing and inspiring. I am enthusiastic about all sorts of music and generally eccentric in my tastes. I am an experienced traveller who dreams of travel experiences yet to come. I am an independant that seeks likeminded people out there (a group of individuals?!).

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

I'd like to meet interesting people. People that I'm excited to spend time with whether in conversation or simply shared company. People who seek adventure, who're after new experiences, fun people. I'd like to talk to people with opinions and ideas who aren't afraid to assert them. People who are interested in more than themselves and people who inspire me to be better (or just inspire me).READ THIS: I do NOT accept random friend requests from total strangers, perhaps you could send a message telling me about you or why we should be e-friends. If you didn't bother reading this far, why would I add you?
