OK, let's see, in 2000 characters or less the goal is to describe who I am and who's fault it is that I am this way :-) , the list of my dreams (which _is_ written down and consumes much more than 2000 characters) and what I've done so far. Then I get to start describing what I'm looking for in a friend / partner / mate. Hum, this could be a toughie...

I am 33 years old, but so used to telling people I'm 34 due to the Chinese calendar that I had to grab the desk calculator to figure out how old I am. May sound silly, but I think in two cultures and one can get confused about things like that. That brings me to Taiwan where I currently reside. Those looking for activity partners should probably pass right over me because for most of you, I'm the epitome of "geographically undesirable". I love getting out for runs in the jungles of Taiwan, usually with the Taipei Hash House Harriers. I'm pretty well traveled (22 countries so far), used to be well read, and for those that worry about such things, I am smoke, drug and disease free.

On to who I hope you are. Geography may present a bit of a problem, if you are in Taiwan, Japan, Hong Kong or Singapore, by all means drop me a line. If you are somewhere else, I'd love to hear from you but we will be trading e-mail for a while before meeting. Works for me, if its OK by you. Hopefully you'll be interested in some of the following - travel, different cultures, China, Asia, wine, skiing, racquetball, Ayn Rand, Camus, John Fairbank, Jonathan Spence, Wired, Don Henley, The Grateful Dead, Jackie Chan, Dr. Zhivago, Star Wars or An Affair to Remember (1950's version). Hey, if so, run, don't walk to press that reply button. If not, but you'd take a chance on a chat or e-mail anyway, drop me a line.
