i'm open to new ideas as well. Write at least something like this in your request so i know you at least read my profile. I am pretty busy, so we can have time together but not all the time.

CURRENT MISSION
To continue to travel, grow and learn.

ABOUT ME

Enjoy traveling, cooking, exercise. Experiencing new cultures, having new experiences, and trying the find the best way to live. I have lived abroad for several years and don't have any plans to move back as of yet. i could live on a diet consisting entirely of indian food and die with a smile on my face. endorphins are my favorite drug, followed closely by caffeine. i don't smile much but when i do its probably at some animal.

PHILOSOPHY
find balance. be authentic. enjoy as much as possible. dont preach.
