I come across as a woodsy-guy, but since shaving the beard, I hopefully appear less lumberjacky. I have enjoyed living in Madison and could stay for quite some time. Transplanting myself to a similar city closer to mountains and/or oceans in the future is also a possibility. I cook, clean, cuddle, fix, build, and make people feel special. I share a beautiful lakeside home on the Isthmus with two great friends (sophisticated ladies). It has a porch made for beautiful views and cuddling. My housemates can attest that I am fully housebroken and a worthy catch. I love being outside and it helps me stay active and motivated. I wear a few battle scars but my lifestyle keeps me in shape without needing to hop on a hamster wheel. I'm a strict vegetarian but my love for cheese prevents me from being a vegan. I’m not offended by omnivores; so don’t see this as an incompatibility, unless you find vegetables repulsing. Plus, you would have never guessed that I don't eat meat unless I told you.

I work in retail . . . sort of. I actually try hard not to work in the retail side of the business and apply my skills to the other parts of my job which involves more problem solving and I see immediate results. I'm trying to make a career out of having fun, so while I don't have an MBA, my business degree will have to do as real life experience is so much more practical.

Paddling has to be the first thing out of my mouth, but I love to make people feel special. I can build and repair things like it was my job. My brain is wired to think in the mechanical/physics realm.

Well I'm big and strong, but that is what an active lifestyle does to you. I'm also quite courteous, and that comes from a proper upbringing. Manners mean a lot to me, and I respond in kind.

I have books

I watch movies

Music, I definitely listen often

Food is veggie centric

Water
Air
Soil
Wind
Weather
and a boat to explore them all.

what to make for dinner

coming home from work and dreading going to work tomorrow. But my roomies sometimes drag me out if they're doing something fun.

My vehicle is the cleanest, most organized thing I own.

If you like a-typical activities, can pee in the woods, capable of enjoying a forest for its intrinsic values, being outside without using machines, taking a moment to listen to a piece of music, or capture the perfect picture then we will probably get along. Of course, having one's own perspective on life helps too. I feel much more comfortable being around people who can talk intelligently about current happenings. Having a distorted humor helps too as I can be abstract and heavily laden with sarcasm at times.
