Date a man from California, United States. Well, about myself, I am 6'4, 220lbs. I work for myself and have a very flexible schedule. In my time off, I love to play golf, ski, scuba, ride my mountian bike or road bike, and read. I love to travel and my last trip was a 5 week trip to Southeast Asia. Film is a great passion, I have seen everything from Swept away (the original)to the Sixth Sense. I prefer intimate gatherings to large parties. I can not wait to travel again, Rome, Costa Rica, Greece, France, sking in BC. Maybe back to Bali! I am a better talker then writer, so lets have coffee or lunch.
