Most of my friends would say I have an easy-going/shy personality. I dislike the bar scene...been there, done that. I prefer relaxing at home or going to a nice restaurant when I go out on dates. On a date, I tend to like quiet surroundings. I'm experienced in relationships but have not had one since moving back to the US in May. Some of my favorite places to go are museums, operas, shopping, of course! I prefer one-on-one dates. I like being with one person or with lots of friends when I'm getting to know someone. Where I live is important. I am not willing to travel or move (I've had to re-adjust to the US after 12 years in Russia so I am not up for another move right now. When I'm at home, I enjoy listening to Nikolai Baskov (opera) or just watching a video...TV turns me off, however. Money and career are necessary to pay the bills but I am not 'into' lots of money...with me, a small amount can go a long way. My current jobs (2) keep me pretty busy but I would like a regular, 40 hour job so as to have more time to be with friends, which are more important to me than money. Work is necessary, however, to keep my cat fed!
