Michaelroma, 44

I graduated from ASU with a B.A. in Anthropology / Archaeology in December 2007 after taking a four year break (moving back and forth a bit and finding my passion). I just returned from Rome in mid-August 2008 after working on an excavation for 7 weeks. The city of Rome and all of Italy has been a passion of mine for years and is the place where I hope to do research and get to know better. I have never been so passionate about one place in my entire life and to share this with someone who appreciates the adventures of traveling would mean a lot to me.
I truly am a genuine person and I'm fun to be around. Sarcasm and witty humor are a part of my daily life as well as being a good listener. I think that once you meet me, you'll feel comfortable. I'm extremely easy going and I love a good conversation but being silly at times brings out the best.
I'm just looking for someone genuine and honest to enjoy my time with. I'm not going to make a bunch of disclaimers about who you can and cannot be. I'm not even close to being perfect, so I don't expect you to be either. I just hope you're out there. All you really need to know here is that I would be most comfortable with someone who doesn't judge me all the time or try to change me. I find humor and intelligence attractive, and it doesn't hurt if you like to ski. Let's just start with honesty...
