In His Own Words
About him
My behaviour toward others is what I would like to see in the people I am friends with as below in: "Describe your ideal match".
Travel around:
3 months in Portland, Oregon, U.S. during warmish weather, well not exactly warm all the time before leaving; go to Antigua around Halloween
3 months in Chicago during warm weather
6 months in Antigua, Guatemala during the cold in the north
Portland:
Visit son.
Hang out with Chinese guy I know, originally from Burma.
Visit with high school friend (just died) and his wife.
Take Spanish.
Need to find a new place to live in Antigua. A friend gave up house where he rented me a room.
The guy, friend from high school, in black shirt, in second picture is one who first invited me to Guatemala.
Go to Chicago during summer to visit and do things around the city:
Music, plays, walk, visit friends.
Antigua to avoid the cold in the north.
Small town. Walk everywhere you want to go.
Want to be able to talk with people other than the gringos.
Put down Spanish as second language, but it is still a goal and not realized yet. Would like to be able to read Gabriel García Márquez. Now that I know more Spanish, this is unlikely -- too much work involved.
The guy from high school and I have a company that looks for placer gold (alluvial deposits in the river).
We do this for fun and, maybe one day, we can make money.
The company is his idea.
personality shorthand -- Enneagram: type 5, sub-type 1-1. Meyers-Briggs: INTP sometimes show up as INTJ.
Longer, less precise: introverted, better interacting with one person rather than many -- that part is the 1-1 above.
geekish, did and still interested in meditation (have fallen off the meditation wagon), Advaita Vedanta, etc.
