Latvia / Riga

If pressed to describe myself in a single sentence of moderate length, I would say that I am an introverted extrovert compared to whom Thomas Hardy is an oracle of optimism, Winston Churchill an archetype of taciturnity, and Woody Allen an exemplar of emotional equilibrium. I have been more conventionally described as unconventional, honest, intellectual, nonconformist, serious, bookish, intense, stubborn, forthright, argumentative, interesting, and, yes, difficult (at times).

Among my preferred activities, thinking, reading, and talking are too important to be labeled mere hobbies. I also enjoy writing, traveling, watching movies, going to the theater,and playing Scrabble.

What I value most in friend and partner alike are intellectual vitality, moral sensibility, and absolute honesty. Everything else is secondary--not necessarily unimportant, but much less crucial than having an active mind, a firm sense of right and wrong, and an abiding commitment to truthfulness (with oneself as well as with others). Of course, a capacity to cope with a personality as offbeat as these words suggest is also highly appreciated.
