so, this is me.


nerdy girl next door

that you once had a crush on

born into a conservative family, I am a product of over-education and a soft life.

; soft, curious, petite, quirky, kind-hearted

I travel often for my career in academia.

I do this because I find it stimulating to interact with people that I usually don’t meet in my everyday life.


Frankie

what I love about being Frankie

a layer of anonymity

; more authentic and raw human interaction

first time jitters, rush

light-hearted but meaningful connections

laughter

energy exchange

physical intimacy

long term friendship and shared memories

I don’t do boring!


preferences

things I enjoy

green spaces

sapiosexual people

intentional movements

crunchy foods

spontaneity

respectful yet challenging conversations

; except contrarians for the sake of being contrarian

 

 

in three words, I am.


wanderlust

a strong desire to travel

I am not sure you could think of me without first thinking of how much I am at home when I am away from home. Sense of not belonging anywhere and not owning anything frees me immensely.

I don’t belong to anyone, and I don’t belong anywhere. I am where I am and what I am now. I like my life simple and clean.


quirk

an aspect of somebody’s personality or behavior that is a little strange

I am very curious about life. I am sometimes a little too curious, and you might think I am quirky. I have two masters degrees, and nothing excites me more than getting to know people and their lives, the tea!

I am rarely shy. Looking straight into your eyes and asking questions that you might not have ever been asked. You might find your face flush. You are asking yourself “Who is this girl?”

I find it endlessly refreshing to say what’s on my mind. It might not be the best strategy to ‘win friends and influence people’ but I find that it makes for a much better start to any relationship. Why complicate things? Don’t we all live once? Shouldn’t we be more honest with our own feelings?


indulgence

the state or act of having or doing whatever you want

Working hard is important, but I want to live. I want to do what I want, when I want. I might not have lived for a long time but I have leaned that I don’t want to regret. It’s important to treat yourself.

You won’t find me spending time in a place I don’t want to be or with people I don’t want to be with. I know that it sounds selfish, but for me there is only one way to live.
