I'm usually reserved but I value good company. This is my first winter in New Zealand and I find myself missing the quiet country pub culture back home in england... mindless gazing into a crackling fire, sipping a pint. I like to read and usually go between the classics and history books. I don't take myself too seriously and look for a sense of humour in others. I'm drawn to polite shy even timid people. I like to reflect on past experiences. After a long day I prefer to sit in silence and gaze out of the window as the last light of the day fades in the evenings, instead of watching tv
