About Me

I'm one of those people who never feel bored, something always sparks my interest or curiosity. I always seem to be on the go or working on something. My sense of humour and ability to kick back keep me balanced. I can talk to and befriend (almost) anyone. I'm a pretty down-to-earth, patient, honest, well-balanced, creative, reflective passionate individual. I am social but also like time to myself as well as getting out of the city to enjoy the silence and beauty of my surroundings. I have a pretty good grasp as to who I am and am very happy with the life that I am living creating. Life brought me to BC over 3 years ago. I've come to consider the west coast home.-time student again and I couldn't be happier with that decision. I am currently in my 3rd year at SFU majoring in Sociology with a minor in dialogue/communication and doing a Sustainable Community Development certificate on the side. My overall focus and passion revolves around holistic community transformation/restoration. I am pretty conscious of the world around me; I live an overall pretty sustainable environmentally-friendly lifestyle and try to be as mindful as possible.I read a lot... I always have at least 5 books going at once.I speak German fluently and a mix-mash of a few other languages.; Austria.; we speak every day.I am quite into philosophy, especially existentialism.I started skiing when I was 3 and have been slowly getting back into it after a knee-operation a few years ago.I love to wander aimlessly around the city and have a really good sense of directionality/the city as a result.As much as I love certain aspects of life in the city, I want to live in a cabin in the woods. Unfortunately for me, at the moment, university is here.I can kick your butt at Catan.I don't own a television, microwave or "fancy phone". I want to/am planning on spending a few months up north in the near/relative future.Hiking and time outdoors is essential to my well-being.Other things I love:- the beach - farmer's markets- used book stores- riding my bicycle- patios and rooftops-; lichen- kayaking with seals swimming by- potlucks/bbqs/dinners with friends- craft beer- creme brulee-- live music, comedy and slam poetry- trying new recipes- continuous, life-long learning- trails and wandering aimlessly- community (!)- collective action- camping/backpacking- drawing and painting- live music / open mic nights- joyful, curious children- backpacking/camping- sunny days (can be rarities here)- family (even though they are far away) & my wonderful friends (BC-family)In others I value most:- a sense of humour and playfulness (!)- the ability to think critically and reflect- the ability to communicate openly and honestly- Kick back at the beach? Sampling beers at the Alibi Room? A burlesque show? A hike? Some live music? Stand-up comedy? Foraging? A trip to the farmer's market? Exploring a flea/free market? Wandering aimlessly around the city? A day-trip out of the city?Anything where we can get to know each other and have a little fun... just not your typical coffee-only date. It ends up feeling like a meeting/interview.

    Any Cat picture will brighten my day- though I'm not a crazy cat lady. My favorite movie is 10 things I hate about you, favorite color is Blue/purple. Sarcasm is my first languageDislike sugar coating the truthEasy going- the best thing to be is spontaneous. I am a down to earth, loving person. I enjoy the simple things in life. Love reading, I'm pretty open to all types of music and movies although I do have my favorites! I want to travel the world and hopefully go back to school. I'm looking to meet new people, go on new adventures and create new memories. I am a full believer of he zombie apocalypse.

    Hey!I'm a very outgoing and laid back girl enjoying the mountains. I've been here for 2 years and plan on sticking around for a while. I'm looking to meet some new people and see where it goes from there, ideally someone who has weekends off and plans on spending a lot of time on the hill this winter :) I'm always up for a nice hike, live music or good conversation over a cold beer. You should probably shoot me a message...just saying. In the car I just can't waitTo pick you up on our very first dateIs it cool if I hold your hand?Is it wrong if I think it's lame to dance?

    I love to do almost anything as long as its in the company of others. I am a social butterfly and I absolutely love to laugh. I come from a huge family and they mean the world to me , I have a few amazing friends who i would do anything for . I love going out for drinks with friends on the weekend, whether it be at a pub or sitting at home with a group of people.I write... alot. And about anyone and anything , it is my passion and it always will be, I love reading as well . Music is a huge part of my life and always has been.Since I was 4 I was singing and dancing on stage. I listen to all kinds of music (especially country :) )and think nothing is better than a night out listening to a live band having a beer. I love going camping and being outdoors. I believe that life is about experiences and not things - Id rather go travelling with my money than buy a fancy car. I believe in helping others before myself and think that doing so is more rewarding than anything else in life. That said, I am passionate about helping others, whether its raising money for a local charity or taking a hurting friend out for coffee, it gives me a high that nothing else in life can . I love being a friend people can rely on and trust. I dont like people who waste my time. I dont like people who are homophobic or racist (although i can take a good racist joke). If you message me saying 'hi' or 'wanna cam' I wont answer you, just a heads up. Im an honest person who wont bullsh*tyou .I dont really know what else to put here, but there`s a whole lot more to me than two paragraphs , so its best to just ask me if you want to know more :)
