I'm looking for someone with whom I can enjoy all that life has to offer, who is as excited as I am about everything there is to experience in the world - from culture to travel to good conversation.

I am most passionate about opera, classical music, friends & family, beaches, traveling, Europe, German language, poetry, bareback horseback riding (though I haven't done it in some time!), romance, walking in picturesque spots, finding a greater meaning in life, connecting with individuals who are excited about something, basically anything that two creative people can come up with to do in an afternoon...

I have no idea if this will work. I am looking for someone who is willing to embark on a crazy adventure with me through life, who is generous enough to compromise so I can follow my passion but who is incredibly passionate about whatever their own dreams are. Even if we don't end up being "it" for each other, I'd love to meet more people from the area since I've recently relocated here and all my friends are far away now. Best of luck in your search!

Quotable quotes:

What else is love but understanding and rejoicing in the fact that another person lives, acts, and experiences otherwise than we do...?
Friedrich Nietzsche

Love is the triumph of imagination over intelligence.
H. L. Mencken

After silence, that which comes nearest to expressing the inexpressible is music.
Aldous Huxley

No opera plot can be sensible, for people do not sing when they are feeling sensible.
W. H. Auden

I have witnessed and greatly enjoyed the first act of everything which Wagner created, but the effect on me has always been so powerful that one act was quite sufficient; whenever I have witnessed two acts I have gone away physically exhausted; and whenever I have ventured an entire opera the result has been the next thing to suicide.
Mark Twain

Bed is the poor man's opera.
Italian Proverb

There are two means of refuge from the miseries of life: music and cats.
Albert Schweitzer

I'm a young opera singer just beginning her career. It takes up an awful lot of my time right now. But I'd be willing to squeeze the right person into the mix...

Singing, conversing, dreaming, being a friend, acting, writing, marketing, researching, cooking, driving, laughing, kissing, relaxing while on vacation, meeting new people, languages, loving, being a good older sister...

I have no idea! I would guess my hair (red and curly, fairly unique).

Books: I love reading everything fiction for relaxing, and don't get nearly enough time to do it. J.D. Robb, Dan Brown... whatever I find on one of my sprees in a used book store.

Movies: Like most girls, I love romantic comedies. But I'm also usually down for a good action/suspense flick, drama, scary movie... pretty much anything with a plot that can distract me from my life but kung fu or anime.

TV: The Office, Arrested Development

Music: Classical and opera, rock & roll, jazz, r&b... anything but country and really psycho techno.

Food: Chinese, Sushi, Italian, French...

1) Music (noticing a pattern here?) :-)
2) Family and friends
3) Travel / experiencing different cultures
4) Water - oceans, rivers, etc
5) Love
6) Internet - sad but true

The greater purpose to life, how to be successful in my field, the goings-on in the lives of my friends and family.

Singing somewhere, either at rehearsal or a performance. Weekend evenings tend to be busy ones for singers...

I've been lonely since moving away from friends and family. It would be nice to find a friend here in TN!
