CURRENT MISSION

To. Have. Fun. And learn something in the meantime.

ABOUT ME

I am tall, lanky (but don't call me that), and like to think. I am genuine, and generally only lie for a laugh. I smile easily. I like parties, but not because I like to drink (don't get me wrong, though, I value a good beer over many other things). I'm very... chill, but I like to explore. I can curl up with a book for hours. I have travelled some on my own, and enjoyed the experience, but I want to travel in company next. I listen more than I speak, and try to only speak when I have something to say. I can be naive, but am well aware of the tendency. The one thing I set myself against is fear, but I am slightly arachnophobic (nothing to be done about it, really).

PHILOSOPHY

Keep a healthy skepticism. Carpe that diem. Don't take anything too seriously. Use your laughter wisely. And often.

Классная вещь, которую я сделал(-а)

I want to do many things, and have half-formed plans for doing them.

In the meantime: I have seen (and actually see fairly regularly) three unconnected mountain ranges in one view.

Учу, учусь, делюсь опытом и информацией

As far as the "Teach" or "Share" part goes, anything I can offer is at the disposal of my friends, and while having me sleep on your couch isn't a guarantee of friendship, it's a step in the right direction. So: I count myself as a pretty good cook; I have the insider's scoop on the state of the high-quality olive oil business, at least in California; I'm smart, but don't like to brag; (in retrospect) I am good at hatching mischevious plans; and I am good at math. I like poetry, and people say I'm good at speaking.

I am open to learning more about anything that someone wants to teach.
