Description
Hi, I'm William!
I'm an 26 year old from New Zealand. I'd say I'm halfway between extroverted and introverted and I love running, cycling, swimming, and music.
I'm used to doing what needs to be done and trying my hand at anything. Every Sunday morning when I was a boy my father would wake my brothers and I up so we could help around the house and garden, for example.
My closest friends call me easy-going, open to new experiences and trying new things. I would say that I'm fairly aware and attentive towards people's wants and needs, because I have a strong need for social harmony. I'm used to a drama-free lifestyle and I'd prefer to keep it that way if I can!
If we meet I look forward to finding out a bit more about who you are and what kind of things you get up to!Interests
