I love: green apples, the smell of books as you flip through the pages(especially old books), windowsills big enough to sit on, balconies with a view, being surrounded by trees and flowers, seeing movies at a theater(the darker the room the better), being with Others, and Oxford commas.

Less seriously: I came to San Francisco about two years ago, searching for some way to make sense out of my life which was falling apart at the time. I'm excited to be in a big city, I love urban life.

I'm currently an undergrad studying Philosophy and Maths. Beyond that, I'm merely trying to live in the present moment. Whatever I decide, I know the kind of man I want to be. And I've come to realize that that is significantly more important than knowing what I want to do with my life.

What that radical change should be.
How to live a good life.

I really like being alone with other people, like in coffee shops, libraries, parks or other public places.

My dreams, both literal and figurative, are important to me.

Sometimes I notice that people notice me giving them a once over. The thing is, they don't realize that I just want to see what shoes they're wearing, shoes are very important to me. I automatically take to people who wear low profile shoes.

I want to save the world, or at least my family. There is so much reprehensible suffering in this world, sometimes I think I can't bear it. Human dignity is the most beautiful thing.

You want to experience the liberating feel of an authentic conversation with nothing held back and no expectations.

You want to do something one or both of us has never done before.
