Hello stranger! If you're reading this, you're probably trying to figure out two things: 1 "Is this guy a creep?" and 2 "Does this guy seem like someone I could have fun with and who interests me?". So I'll do my best to answer your questions.

1. No (although, who would admit to this really?)

2. Maybe. That's probably not the answer you were expecting, but it's honest. I'm not here looking for a specific type of person; I am here looking for a specific quality of person. I'm in medical school. I play rugby for UF. I speak 3 languages, have lived in 5 countries, and have no idea where "home" is. My life is not average, and if I'm not looking for an "average" person.

My life is exciting, ambitious, and extremely fun, and I'm looking for some one who fits into that. Having said all that, here are a few other things you might want to know about me.

I love to eat, so I learned to cook, and got pretty good at it.
I travel every chance I get. The world is amazing, and the people and places in it can teach us so many things. So far, I've been to 24 countries, and am always looking for opportunities to visit new places.
Staying active is very important to me. Playing sports, hiking, rock climbing, working out, whatever, it's all good.
Movie nights or board games are great, but I would rather go out and be with people most weekends.
Yes, I can salsa. No, I'm not amazing at it. Yes, if we go dancing I will ask you to join me.
I'm an extrovert, and a stimulating conversation is as attractive as any mini-skirt.

When you message me, please don't just say "hey". That takes no effort and is really a terrible way of starting a conversation. That being said, go ahead, message me, what's the worst that can happen? =P

I'm a first year medical student at UF. So I'll be studying for a while longer.

Science, languages, making friends with strangers, cooking, rugby, talking, and setting and reaching goals.

I'm very easy to talk to and open minded. I also usually get asked why I don't look Hispanic with a name like Fernando.

I am an avid reader, but picking a favorite book is very difficult. I enjoy the classics like Catcher in the Rye, Heart of Darkness, Grapes of Wrath, and even Shakespeare, but I also love Harry Potter and other less analytical books.

I'm not very big on TV shows, as my life is too hectic to follow them, but I enjoy watching House, The Walking Dead, and How I Met Your Mother when they're on TV.

I love Mexican and Thai food, and even took a Thai cooking course while I was visiting. Like any self respecting male, however, I cannot turn down a good steak.

My music taste varies, but mostly I just like listening to new things. I cannot stand the radio in Gainesville, as they play the same 15 songs over and over. I can and do enjoy anything from electronic to salsa to classical music, and a handful of country songs.

My laptop, sports, my passport, my family, delicious food, and red wine.

Other than school which really takes up most of my time.... I think a lot about the awesome places in this wolrd I still want to visit, the people I want to see, how to maximize my happiness in life, and why people can't just accept that evolution is a fact, not a theory.

Most Fridays I'm probably at a bar with either my classmates or teammates. Sometimes I like going out to clubs also, and occasionally I just don't feel like going out, and will have people over for a nice dinner instead.

I've never lived more than 4 years in the same city, so I don't really know where "home" is, and I wish I did.

You know you can keep up.
