I am curious, creative, and straightforward.

My Self-Summary

The section where nearly every sentence starts with "I". Not because I'm vain but because I'm not a creative writer. OK, enough pre-emptive excuses!
I'm outspoken and not always subtle for which I compensate with self-deprication (which is probably why I love British humour). I'm no cynic but I do believe in facing facts. Yet I strive to be positive, learn more and judge less. People often think me rational which is true, but I do have a sensitive side and some artistic temperament to go with it. I've always felt a bit of an outsider which is why I appreciate personality and individuality in others and hate group dynamics. When comfortable I am fairly quick witted. I certainly have a comfort zone, but having to leave it always makes me feel like I'm alive.

What I’m doing with my life

I have always been interested in fantasizing, creating and building. This has led me to be an architect. I love my work which in turn has widened my interest in other areas like art, design and science. I guess I like feeding my head. I like to travel and Architecture photograpy is my favourite pastime. I also enjoy reading and walking and in general feeling the life of the city around me. I make a good enough living and love my work. But I'm not a workaholic or very career oriented. Just as long as I can enjoy what I do.

I’m really good at

Being tenacious (if it's worth it), being headstrong (when it's not worth it) and in knowing my limitations. Also I am practical and have an eye for detail.

The first things people usually notice about me

That's something I would like to know myself. I'd make good use of it!

I have a lot of favourite movies:
- North by Northwest (or any other colourful Hitchcock)

My favourite food:
Lots, I just don't eat meat (but I'm not interested in converting anyone, so don't let that deter you). And I like eggplant, especially when grilled.

The six things I could never do without

the weather
the city
my camera
company
British humour
my Roomba

I spend a lot of time thinking about

beauty, morality, pretentiousness, did I turn off the coffee maker?

On a typical Friday night I am

Looking forward to filling a whole weekend again.

The most private thing I’m willing to admit here

I can't do math.

You should message me if

.. you feel like it. I'm looking for a relationship. No children (mine or anyone else's, best to be upfront about that). I must admit I have a weakness for nerdy/ scientific types, not so much for people emulating SATC characters.

I don't think I can fly around the world to meet you so being in my vincinity would be a plus.

One can never have enough friends however. So if you still want to, contact me regardless of anything I 've written above.
