I am gentle, witty, and compassionate.

My Self-Summary

I'm a fairly quiet person and I choose to hold my tongue unless I have something decent to say. I'm not a particularly bubbly person although I've been known to break out of my shell in the right company.

I've recently purchased a new motorcycle and I enjoy being out on the road, exploring unknown places and seeing the things we take for granted from a different perspective. I don't consider myself to be a "biker" and I certainly don't live that lifestyle.

I'm somewhat eccentric and always visible in a crowd, so there will never be a fear of getting lost around me! I reckon that's a good thing. I've always got some or other style of facial hair and currently it's a really long goatee. Ask for a pic, even if it's just for a laugh!

I consider myself to be a humorous person and I believe we need laughter to stay sane.

What I’m doing with my life

I'm a senior software developer/team lead with a fairly large financial institution. My career is fairly important to me as it allows me to afford the little luxuries that make life worthwhile. That said, it certainly does not consume my life and I have a fair amount of time to enjoy the things I am afforded.

I’m really good at

I'm generally considered to be a good listener and I am never judgmental. I'll offer my opinions when asked but I will never force them on anyone. I'm a logical thinker but I have a big heart and at times I find the two at war with each other.

The first things people usually notice about me

Well, I'm pretty damn tall, so I guess that's a given. I also currently have a really long beard, which you can't really miss. I have deep blue eyes and depending on my mood and what I'm wearing, I'm told my eyes give away my age as they appear very playful.

My favorite books, movies, music, and food

Books: I enjoy reading fantasy novels. Anything with a remotely epic connotation that manages to make me fall in love with the characters and their adventures gets my blood flowing.

Movies: Pretty much anything, really. I prefer decent thrillers, horrors and sci-fi but when the mood strikes I quite enjoy certain romantic comedies. I also really like stand-up comedy.

Music: This one's somewhat contentious. I mainly listen to rock and metal but there are certain other genres I find intriguing. I enjoy some celtic and new-age artists but nothing beats the clarity and power of a good rock balad.

Food: I'm really not fussed. I love food in general and there are very few things I don't enjoy. Favorites would probably be spare-ribs and pizza.

The six things I could never do without

My bike
My friends
My family
My music
Beautiful scenery
My pc.

I spend a lot of time thinking about

Humanity. Humans are quite intriguing beings. We're all so different, yet we're all the same on so many levels.

Everything I want to achieve in life. The places I want to visit and the things I want to see. I've always had wanderlust but it's been significantly compounded since I've bought the bike.

Many, many other things. It all depends on what happened during the day. I generally consider myself to be a deep thinker.

On a typical Friday night I am

Either watching movies or episodes, listening to music, braaing, watching bands or just having a beer with a few friends at our local watering hole.

The most private thing I’m willing to admit here

Private things are considered private for a reason...

You should message me if

If you're looking for new friends with different experiences and different backgrounds to share your life with or if you're interested in finding someone to experience new things with. Who knows what the future holds? The way I see it, there are no wrong choices in life. Everything we do shapes who we are and it's only through experience that we learn.

"If there was nothing wrong then there'd be nothing right..."
