The woman I'm dreaming of is a great conversationalist who is as opinionated as she is open-minded, as sensual as she is strong, and as open as she is inquisitive. I try to be all of these things, as well as compassionate and authentic, and I place a high value on knowing people deeply.I'm grew up in Boston, so my sense of humor tends to be colored with sarcasm, but most people seem to find me pretty funny anyway. Balance that with five years of Architecture School in New Orleans, the city that never leaves your soul, and you'll start to get a picture of what I'm all about.I think people would say I am pretty social and outgoing, and I'm the kind of person who will strike up a conversation with a stranger in line. I am a former performing musician, and music is still a huge part of my life, so I go out for art and music events of all kinds - rock shows, theater, symphony, dance, lectures, anything to spawn new ideas and inspiration. I'm also down for just good****ails and cuisine. But I love me some soul food most of all, and the edgier the better when it comes to all things art.I'm also very into wilderness recreation, which isn't too original in these parts, but just happens to be true. Its my favorite way to vanquish the stress of the work week.
