Date men and women from United States / California / Valley Village, 63 year old

Date people from California, United States. HAPPY NEW YEAR ! Hello and thank you for taking a look at my profile. My name is Russel and I have a better user name for the new year. I transplanted myself here from New York City in 1990. I am an honest, easy-going, and very down-to-earth man who likes peace of mind and hates drama and baggage. We all have some baggage, but it is the secure person who doesn't ask others to carry them. I can be with you without comparing you to someone in the past.........can you? I would like to meet an honest and easy-going woman who is mature of mind and peaceful in temperment like me. Also who lives within 50 miles of Los Angeles and with no children. It is a big plus if she is also financially and mentally stable like I am ! Also if she is independent and a 21st century thinker because, as you know, to be older is not necessarily to be old-fashioned! TA DAH! That's Just Plain Me!

Meet men and women from California, United States. I am a woman who likes my life and what I do! I think life is basically a GIFT!! (even on the days when I'm feeling grumpy ; )
Yoga and meditation (doing and teaching it) are a big part of my life and help to keep me happy, balanced and open to meeting new people. I think who you're with is far more important than what you do. This is a bit of an odd way to meet people..and yet one never knows what might be possible...
I am from the E coast, like the W coast..and still definitely identify with my E coast roots. So i love to go back in the Fall, Spring and early summer..Boston and environs, Hudson River Valley, NYC for culture, plays, dance..still have some family there. Also love
Philly area, Hiking at Hawk Mountain Sanctuary! the Delaware Watergap... ....So Jersey (near Princeton area) Wonderful friends deep in the Poconos..horse country near S, NY State.I have traveled in Europe (including Yugoslavia when it was still one country) and want to do more traveling....I used to be fluent in German and could re-new those skills..I pick up languages fairly quickly.
My taste in music is eclectic and can run the gamut from classical, jazz, world music, blues to rock (just no rap or heavy metal please). I like live music venues...dining out (I do tend to eat very healthfully) and enjoy cooking. I also sing with my temple choir - it is fun, community-minded and is a great outlet that gets my endorphins going! Sometimes we really rock the house!
Dear to me - my daughter in Chicago, my cats(2), long term friends, family, spending some time in nature everyday (walking barefoot, gardening) Courtesy and kindness are important to me. If you write to me, I will reply.
I appreciate a good sense of humor and an ability to laugh at oneself and life.....
I think that age is largely a state of mind..so sometimes I'm 63 and sometimes I'm 16 , my pictures are current.
Please have pictures with your profile..! My daughter sees me as never aging...( would be wonderful, YES??) I don't THINK that's possible but I certainly intend to do so as gracefully as I can and keep my youthful wonder about life, the world and people....Hope to find a man who shares a sense of adventure and wants a real relationship and all that entails.....

Date a soulmate from California, United States. I think, signing up for Match.com is truly a challenging experience because one has to be brutally honest analyzing himself. It is not easy to write a profile in which one tells the world how he looks and most importantly how he sees himself. Reading the profiles it appears to me that everybody would make a perfect partner. Well, I want to find someone who doesn't think that he is perfect but willing to make some compromise to be in a great relationship.
