I have been living and working in New York for the last 14 years but grew up in Europe. My work is demanding but I try not to let that define me and try to engage in a lot of social and cerebral activities.

Aside from work which although I do like but is at times too demanding, I love to travel and except Antarctica, have been to all continents. Meeting and understanding new cultures is big on my agenda. I speak 3 languages and love to learn 2 more, so I have started to learn Mandarin. I have tried my hand at a little and sometimes a lot of just about everything, except Bungee jumping and extreme skiing! I will try out a thrill as long as it's not stupidly risky!

I love sports. Although tennis is my main sport I started long distance running 3 years ago to raise money for the Lymphoma and Leukemia Society. I ran my third Marathon last year in Alaska. If you have not been to Alaska I highly recommend it.

I think I am pretty gifted for learning new languages and love to spend more time doing that.

Also, I am quite athletic and have excelled in most of the sports that I have attempted, including Tennis, Basketball and now running.

On the social side, I can make people laugh and for my friends and family I am very adept at making everyone feel better, pretty much about everything.

Appearance, my eyes!! and then my sense of humor - I am very a social person and tend to get along with most people.

The Alchemist, Fooled by Randomness, The transfiguration of man, Hitch Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy, The stranger, Liar's Poker...

Tennis, music, ...others I will tell you as I get to know you!

How difficult it is to meet good women in this city!! :_)

I will go for dinner for friends, or a concert or a movie, tennis or have friends over for dinner. Although these days I have started a new job and have to do my runs after work including Fridays!.

You are an honest person, looking for a genuine relationship.
