I am an outgoing, fun guy originally from California who now lives happily in the West Village of Manhattan. While I have lived here for a several years now, I still retain many of my California values such as keeping work and life in healthy balance, eating healthy, exercising regularly, dressing well isn't only for gay men-straight guys can do it too!, and a love of warm weather and the beach. I love great conversation, laughing, going out, mingling with friends, travelling near and far, exploring new things, movies, learning about culture and meeting new people. I played many sports for many years growing up (basketball, soccer, football, track, tennis, volleyball, baseball and rugby) and I do continue to play a couple today intramurally (basketball and soccer), but I am far from obsessive about it and mostly follow a handful of teams. I have a lot of european influences in my life as I did live in London for awhile and have many friends from many different countries. for fun: traveling (over 30 countries), movies, museums, theater, SCUBA (adv open water), working out, running, music, beach volleyball, basketball, football, soccer, baseball, tennis, going out/socializing, meeting new people, doing new things, live music. favorite things: MUSIC: Interpol, Arcade Fire, Stereophonics, Foo Fighters, Killers, Keane, Cold Play. MOVIES: The Queen, Borat, Motorcycle Diaries, Ave Montaigne, Jackass, Austin Powers, early James Bond. TV: PlanePlanet Earth, Punked, Ni
