I'm Daniel Piechnick — a successful entrepreneur, investor, and board game designer from Adelaide, South Australia. I have a great life here. Come and join me.
I realise this is unusual. Please watch this video, and I'll explain why I'm doing this. This site is current, as of Feb 2026.
WHO AM I?
I'm an INTJ, "The Architect". These Myers-Briggs personality types aren't scientifically sound, but people like them.
I'm an outgoing, entertaining, and positive person. I love to make people laugh. My sense of humour might be my best feature, though I know I don't convey it in this profile.
I'm a very interesting character, but a normal and sensible person where it matters. I'm not secretly some awkward weirdo who no-one wants, or someone who has social problems. I've had more than my fair share of interest from women in my social circles, if that's any gauge. Most of my friends are women.
I like to talk about things bigger than day-to-day life, rather than engage in gossip about people or local events. I'm particularly interested in history, linguistics, and biology. I speak French.
I'm always busy creating something, or learning something new. My board game design career has been very successful so far, so I'm always working on a new game. That's how I spend a lot of my time. Creating fun for people is a very interesting challenge.
I'm a bit of a gardener, but I don't actually have a garden here. I do, however, have twenty different fruit trees on my front balcony. I have peaches and mangoes, and more unusual things like feijoas and loquats, and things no one's ever heard of like abiu, ice cream beans, and Panama berries. It's nice to see them grow, even though it's probably more work than it's worth.
Like everyone, I have downsides. I'm a good person and I try to improve myself, so I don't have any big negatives, or anything I think will unduly impact a relationship. Probably my biggest negative, as people have mentioned it to me, is that I'm very blunt. I just tell people exactly what I think, and that's often not a good thing. Very little impresses me, so I stick with the things I'm comfortable with – people, restaurants, interests, and the like. Don't try to take me to the opera. :) I'm also not at all concerned with tradition or societal norms. I do things no one else tries to do, and I do them until they're complete. This has been my greatest strength, and has made me wildly successful at most things I do. However, it also leads me across all kinds of rocky terrain – like this crazy search you're reading now, that's grown to consume far too much time, money, and reputation. I don't think I'll ever stop trying big projects, and being with me is not going to be a typical life.
What kind of a partner would I be? I don't know. I can only really look at the relationships I have with others. I've sorted out my own world now (with the exception of not having found a partner), and I spend a lot of time helping the people around me. It might just be running Scrabble clubs for people, or something insignificant. But I'm also helping all kinds of people who have very different crises in their lives. There's someone in every family who does that, and that person is me.
