Date men and women from United States / Arizona / Page, 45 year old

Date people from Page, United States. I live, play, and work in the public lands on the Colorado Plateau; I run a public lands non-profit, and I am a photographer, writer, and filmmaker exploring this immense landscape.
I originate from the Los Angeles area, but escaped almost seven years ago to live a more meaningful life and be closer to the wild places in our country. I am constantly working to live a more sustainable life... Less stuff, more experiences.
I am passionate about photography, the written word, moving images, and music with energy (quiet energy, loud energy, emotional energy). Much of my interests are also connected to wild places, the landscape that surrounds us, conservation, and environmental issues. I am prone to spontaneous road trips and heading out for undiscovered country.
I am easily inspired and entertained by good books (Ed Abbey, Craig Childs, Kurt Vonnegut, Barry Lopez, Christopher Moore, T.C. Boyle, Jim Harrison), good movies (O Brother Where Art Thou [okay, every Cohen Brothers film], Before Sunrise, Before Sunset, Dead Man, Blade Runner, etc. etc., etc.), good music (Cowboy Junkies, Neko Case, Mumford and Sons, Carolina Chocolate Drops, Natalie Merchant, The Avett Brothers, Nick Cave, Over the Rhine, The Frames, Ray LaMontagne, Cat Power, Damien Rice... just to scratch the surface), and good photography (Edward Weston, Ansel Adams, Carleton Watkins, Dorothea Lange, Eliot Porter, and many others).
I like to have real, engaging conversations; I like to play and laugh and tumble about in the weeds; I like to change directions mid-course and spontaneously take the road less traveled when the opportunity presents itself; I like to stare at the sky, the moon, the stars, the clouds, and most definitely passing storms; I like an empty road leading into the horizon...

I believe that honesty, integrity, and open communication are essential in any relationship; that two people can have a meaningful and committed relationship and still maintain their individuality; that a healthy balance will always strengthen any connection; that it is important to be Best Friends.

I am looking to meet an adventurous and passionate woman to share explorations, a laugh, a smile, a conversation, live music, a quiet moment, a good meal, a sinful dessert, sunrises, sunsets, full moons... someone, to marvel at the world with...

Meet a woman from Page, United States. I am a quiet individual. Takes time for me to open up. I like a man to hold me, massage my back, shoulders and feet and tell me how special I am to him and to make me laugh. I've taken care of others for a long time and I'm ready to be the one taken care of. I believe in giving of oneself through volunteering. I attend church when not working. I do not patronize businesses on Sundays. I am a serious person looking for that special man that can draw the fun side out that is hidden inside.
