Hello friends! Here we all are, yet again, to find what we're looking for. I'm not a big fan of these darn dating apps/sites, so I'm tempering my expectations but keeping an open mind. Ya never now, right?! I'm here looking for substance - like, actual substance and genuine connection. I come from a Palestinian-Christian family, but I'm open to all backgrounds provided that our values align. Me: intelligent, funny/witty, extroverted (but enjoy the quiet), kind, respectful, educated, high EQ, open-minded, great communicator (I'm an open book), well-traveled (lived in 3 foreign countries), well-cultured, chivalrous. Wow, look how amazing I just made myself sound! Oh, did I also mention pathological liar? ;-) #TheInternet! I live a healthy lifestyle - mind, body, and spirit - and enjoy the little things in life (like my afternoon cortado). I'm originally from San Francisco, born and raised, but spent the last 10 years in Washington, DC (trying to save the world) and New York City (trying to save myself). Today, the world is still in shambles and I'm on a dating website. Ah, the sweet smell of success. Did I mention, I'm also very sarcastic?! About 9 months ago, I decided I wanted to be closer to my family, particularly my parents, so I packed up my life (more like purged everything) and skedaddled over to fabulous Las Vegas, which is where I'm living now.
