I am easy-going, interesting, and fun.

My Self-Summary

I work in software, and music, movies and dance are my main sources of leisure. I've been in this country for 12 years, and I love the bay area, mainly because of the diversity here. There is nothing Indian you don't get here, but there's also so many other cultures to explore and enjoy. I love percussion, and there's always a rhythm playing in my head. I'm very open-minded and liberal, and not religious at all, though I am drawn to spirituality. Nothing annoys me more than mindless adherence to religious dogma. I am adventurous and love to try new things.

What I’m doing with my life

I work pretty hard, but insist on making enough time for play. I love music and play with a samba drum group. Never thought I was much of a dancer until I discovered salsa - I haven't been spending too much time on it but I enjoy it when I do.

I don't travel nearly enough, but I'm working on that! There is so much out there and I want to experience it all. Scuba diving and horseback riding is next. And I can't wait to get to Africa.

I’m really good at

I was never much good at bragging - but anyway...

- being responsible and understanding
- musical instruments
- appreciating movies (major movie-phile)
- being a friend, though I suck at remembering birthdays!
- working with people
- most sports (actually playing them, not following them on TV)

The first things people usually notice about me

My eyes, my weird 'british english' expressions, my easy-going and friendly nature

My favorite books, movies, music, and food

Books - mostly non-fiction, stuff on evolution and religion, though I loved 'Interpreter of Maladies'.

Movies - My cousin Vinny, Gladiator, Titanic, the Indiana Jones movies, Stand By Me, Million Dollar Baby, Monsoon Wedding, most of Hayao Miyazaki's movies (Nausicaa, Kiki's Delivery Service are my favs), lots of indian movies

Music - John Mayer, Dead Weather, the Police, Norah Jones, Dixie Chicks, Linkin' Park, Dire Straits, Eagles, salsa / bachata, lots of indian music

Food - I like all kinds of cuisine, but my favs are Indian (of course), Japanese, Middle Eastern, Mexican

The six things I could never do without

- Friends
- Family
- A job (to keep me busy and make me money)
- Drums
- Vacations
- Good food and drink

I spend a lot of time thinking about

Work stuff (let's face it, we spend most of our lives doing that), politics, where I'm going to travel next, new experiences to try, things to do with the people I love.

On a typical Friday night I am

At a salsa or samba event with my friends, or chilling with dinner and drinks or a movie.

The most private thing I’m willing to admit here

I tear up at the movies pretty often (I respond to stuff that is genuine, not the sappy stuff)

You should message me if

You want to have an interesting and fun evening
