My hobbies include going for walks, collecting curiosities (coins, maps, relics, books, instruments, etc.), studying the sky, reading, cats (though I don't have one myself), chess and occasionally basketball. I revel in fascination. Almost anything can catch my interest, in some respect. I will admit that I also sometimes forget this fact insist on being bored. I don't get grossed out easily. I often study German and Chinese language/culture in my free time. I aspire to learn French and/or Russian. I want to travel more but I also know that wherever you go, there you are, as they say. I mostly listen to classical music, especially BACH. I also like jazz, blues, and ragtime. I play bass in a band that does mostly 90's cover songs. I would like to live a good life - I strive toward nonaction. I am often lonely for the company of a nice lady.
