My perfect mode of existence is carrying a backpack through mountains on a multi-day hike. I have never understood why persecuting oneself physically for days on end makes me happy but it does and something out there cleanses you. I'm fascinated by philosophy and love exploring life's absurdities. Nothing is off-topic for me and I'm impossible to offend. I'm just as curious about other people's lives as I am about ideas and that's really what draws me to pen-palling.
