ABOUT ME:

I am not the most talkative person (which probably isn't the best introduction) but I believe I can carry a good conversation. And if you love talking, we'll make a good fit cause I'm a great listener. ;)
I enjoy ridiculous nonsensical topics as much as I do deep ones.
Genuine bear hugs are incredible.
Laughter is love.
Being able to be silly is wonderful.
I love dancing, the spazzing out kind to all sorts of electro music. Which is why I am bad at Salsa. I don't know how to dance sensual. Neither do I have those sexy hips.
I love karaoke, but only in private rooms. No public singing, thanks.
I enjoy cooking a lot. It's always experimental though. So I can never recreate the same meal twice.

PHILOSOPHY:

Better to regret doing something rather than to regret not doing it.

Also,

The people make the place.
