My self-summary
I'm leaving some information here for now, but for the remainder of January I don't expect to be available. I didn't want to completely disable my profile, but I may not reply to any messages this month.

---

Call it a New Year's Resolution for me to get back out there. Anyone care to join in?

Would you like a pleasant evening to purr about later? Me too. Let's go!
What I’m doing with my life
I have many many interests, I'm generally pretty enthusiastic about life. I'm the academic-ey type, working in research, basically a full-time paid student.

My profile photo is from New-Year's eve just a few days ago.

For conversation starters: My recent-ish activities have recently included (with the caveat that I'm not an expert in any of these things, they're only interests):
Fencing (the sword-fighting kind), archery, modern dance, making silver jewelry, 3D printing, Spanish, hiking (in Australia, New-Zealand, Peru, and Nepal), travel, 3D photography, web design, making origami lamps, making fake warning signs and sticking them to the doors at work, figuring out how to play computer-game theme songs on my little Casio keyboard, and unsuccessful attempts to decode the cyrillic alphabet since I already speak one Eastern-European language and was hoping that reading Cyrillic would would help me understand some Russian. It didn't. Now I can't remember the rules for Cyrillic any more. There's probably more, but I forget. I like hugs.
I’m really good at
Occasionally saying just the wrong thing and freaking people out.
The first things people usually notice about me
Three things:
* The beard,
* The glasses,
* The enthusiasm and pathological urge to question people about what they're into, what they're passionate about, and to carry that conversation as long as they're interested to.

I shaved off the beard recently but a whole bunch of people commented that I looked better with it, so it's back.
Favorite books, movies, shows, music, and food
I'm a bit of a movie buff, I will happily talk cinema.

I'm into all kinds of music, except rap and opera :-)
What I listen to most is Philip Glass and hippie instrumental stuff, plus heaps of random pop - I'm not above admitting that I like CSS, Lilly Allen, Mark Ronson, etc.

Another of my current interests is musical theory, and I've just started learning cello. I have a piano that I don't play well (at all) but I enjoy mucking around with - it's a favourite conversation topic of mine at the moment. Remember, good with piano and cello = good with my hands!
The most private thing I’m willing to admit
I have done internet dating before - what an amazing future we live in, huh?
I’m looking for

  • Ages 22–36
  • Near me
  • For long-term dating, short-term dating, activity partners, casual sex
