Date men and women from United States / California / Solana Beach, 43 year old

Date someone special from California, United States. I am a happy and glass is half full kind of person. I have a busy life and work hard and travel a fair amount for my job. I love yoga, running and hiking. I think I am a pretty simple person who loves shooting pool at a dive bar as much as I like a mellow night having dinner and great conversation. I hate filling out these profiles and am pretty confident I would be way better served having my friends tell you about me than this silly paragraph!

Meet a soulmate from California, United States. Happy, grounded independent thinker who is well-educated, well-traveled, family-oriented and overly-hyphenated.
I like my life and would be tickled all shades of pink to have a companion with whom to share it. I love to laugh, and retain my sense of childlike wonder at the world and its beauty. I'm quite nurturing, but not in an overbearing way, and deeply appreciate being cared for and cherished. I haven't found all the answers and am just learning to ask the right questions but I live my life with gratitude and hope you do, too.
I'm artsy not hippie, non-conformist but never reactionary, goofy but rarely absurd. I ski, play tennis, kayak, adore art, music, and literature, have a strange affinity for the underdog and throw down a mean game of poker. I am complicated by nature but strive toward a simple life of passion, compassion and intellect, with a dash of adventure and excess for good measure. If you're not afraid to go to trekking in Kashmir or fancy the idea of a couple of weeks roaming aimlessly through Europe, please do get in touch.
You are bright, educated and authentic. Men with limited imaginations need not apply. I adore funny, secure, supportive men who love animals, books, high- and very low-culture. Please be quick-witted and intellectually curious, strong and able to provide some guidance while accepting my independence. You are passionate rather than fanatical, whether the topic is religion, sports or politics. And you are probably Jewish, though it's not a deal breaker.
I like minimum drama, maximum substance. I'm very communicative, so if you're best able to express your thoughts and emotions through sock-puppetry or interpretive dance, we're not a good match.
PS: Apparently, curvy now means fat in the online dating lexicon. Please see pics to confirm that I don't have my own zip code.
PPS: Enough winking, gentlemen. If you wish to begin a conversation, send an email. Cheers.
