Great sense of humor, big personality, and small body!

I'm looking for a partner who loves travel, conversation, eating/drinking, and staying active.

I am a reformed musician, who is working and studying in the communications field. I'm in a masters program and work full time, but love to make time for important folks in my life.

Just renewed the season tickets to the Timbers, and, while it's been a tough year on the scoreboard, I always look forward to the next game (Hopelessly optimistic, by the way).

I love to travel and experience new cultures even if I wind up looking like an ass. I once stayed in line at an Italian grocery store despite the checker repeatedly telling me that he was closed. That was my first day in Italy and also the first time I heard a real Italian say "Mama mia."

I make my living putting together content for print and web and enjoy playing music on the side.

Also, I'm trying to figure out how I can do more traveling. Just went to Hawaii, and a trip to Thailand is next on the list.
**Update: I just booked a trip to Peru! Going to visit Machu Picchu in June. Very excited about this!**

I'm short, but awesome.

Way too much to list! I'm in grad school, so I haven't had too much time for recreational reading and TV watching. But, I read quite a bit of online news (NPR, etc.)

Here is a random sampling of tastes:

Literature: Kerouac, Frank McCourt, news magazines.
Movies: documentaries, City of God, Once, Tropic Thunder
Shows: Dexter, Weeds, Nova, Nature
Music: Cannonball Aderly, BB King, Ella Fitzgerald, Regina Spektor, Etta James, John Mayer, Tito Puente, Buena Vista Social Club, Johnny Cash, Herbie Hancock, Weezer, etc.
Food: meat, cheese, bread, ethnic foods! Anything at Screen Door or Po' Shines!

An instrument, companionship, travel, good food, my dog, family, and friends.

Either chasing around the puppy or meeting friends for drinks.

Online dating can be a soul crushing experience!

You are fun/funny, you enjoy a good conversation, you are happy with your life, you have goals or aspirations, you love to travel, you are interested in a relationship, and you are awesome......or if you just want to meet my puppy :)
