I consider myself a down to earth person who loves people. I can be brainy at times. I am a realistic optimist, and believe that life has infinitely wonderful experiences to offer. What else...I'm pretty worldly and love to travel and learn new languages (I already speak a few)...I like to help others (it's hard for me to be happy if those around me aren't). I am an extroverted person, but I definitely have a quieter, thoughtful side. I'm sort of a romantic at heart (corny as it sounds, haha). Some of my passions include music (popular and 'ethnic'/'world music'...both listening and singing) and sports (basketball, soccer, swimming). I enjoy reading/writing and learning about life on this earth.I want to write a book...I enjoy working with clay... Um...I'm really into current events/anthropology and history/archaeology...I love comedy clubs...I'm humble and non-pretentious, or at least I think so... Anyhow, I can't really sum myself up in a few sentences...noone can, really. I'd like to meet someone with whom I have enough similarities that we can click, but who is different enough from me that I find them fascinating.
