So what you are saying is that you enjoy perceiving the world through many different levels simultaneously, and in varying combinations?

Being one of these 'slackers' I'd like to seize this opportunity to say Hullo everybody!
Personally I would prefer the word flâneur, though:
Quote:The term flâneur (English pronunciation: /flä-ˈnər/) comes from the French masculine noun flâneur—which has the basic meanings of "stroller", "lounger", "saunterer", "loafer"—which itself comes from the French verb flâner, which means "to stroll". Charles Baudelaire developed a derived meaning of flâneur—that of "a person who walks the city in order to experience it".
[...]
Flâneur is not limited to someone committing the physical act of peripatetic stroll in the Baudelairian sense, but can also include a "complete philosophical way of living and thinking"...
from Wikipedia
Aren't we all rather sophisticated wanderers?
