I'm a kind person who values intelligence, honesty, hard work and transparency.

I just finished my master thesis (yay!) and enjoy a little time off studying to finally try these new cooking recipes I always wanted to try.

Sports are very important to me and I work out a lot. I spend three hours a day training and weightlifting, six times per week.

I ran Montreal's marathon last September and plan to beat my time this year. I'm a huge fan of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and I plan to fight in my first competition this year. I'm training for my blue belt pretty seriously... and it kind of hurts!

I have my own place, my own business and my own car. My business takes most of my work time and has grown every month since I started it. I just applied to be on Dragon's Den this year, who knows?

I enjoy travelling and exploring a lot. The United States are a prime destination for me and I go there every year. I dream of going an entire summer and do a long road trip all over the country.

When I'm not cooking the best spaghetti sauce ever, I'm out with university friends trying new beers and watching sports. I live close to Crescent and Peel, which are two of my most appreciated streets ever!

TV SHOWS: Doctor Who is the best show ever, then Sherlock, The Mentalist, Breaking Bad, House, Luther and Dexter. Oh, I saw all Columbo episodes too.

BOOKS: Despite my busy schedule, I make a point of reading a book a month. Recently enjoyed: The murder of Roger Ackroyd, Les piliers de la terre, Sophie's choice, Catcher in the Rye, An introduction to corporate finance and derivatives products: A comprehensive and logical approach to mathematical and numerical analysis of financial products (this book changed my life!).

FOOD: I enjoy restaurants from time to time, especially in group with friends, but I prefer to cook by a mile. My best recipes are:

1) Anything with my spaghetti sauce. In fact, I could drink my spaghetti sauce raw (it takes an entire day to make!)
2) General Tso chicken - voted best by all family members. I make this one once a month minimum.
3) Seafood Pad Thai - with shrimps and however "langoustine" is written in English.
4) Slowly-roasted juice beef This one is cooked at low temperature for eleven hours for maximum flavor!
5) Peanut chicken - a recipe from my mom, simple to make and so tasty!

Which one of these five recipes would you like to try?

1) Grapefruits. Best fruit ever.
2) No second thing. You all know by now. Air, friends, doors, etc. I just wanted to say that I really liked grapefruits.

I believe that relationships are difficult and require constant work from both parties. Very few people are ready to commit the time, energy and emotion necessary for a relationship to fully bloom. Most people these days treat relationships like a simple consumable good.

You're smart, you're educated, you're hard-working, but most of all, you are a genuinely kind person. Be in good shape and have at least one passion in your life.

I have a busy life and a lot of different interests. I am looking for someone with an active life that can make my life even better. If you do recognize yourself in what I wrote, then by all means message me. I am always open to new friends at the very least.
