Date men from United States / California / Windsor, 42 year old

Date single man from Windsor, United States. I like to laugh, though in a good way and not at the expense of others. I'm caring, smart, giving, an introvert (my friends might disagree with that), usually quiet and reserved, like to try new things, and generally responsible. If you're looking for someone wild and crazy, I'm not your guy, even though I have a motorcycle (I drive responsibly).
I am looking for someone who is self-reliant and capable but isn't independent to an extreme. She should be emotionally intelligent and intellectually challenging (college education preferred, but I've met smart women who did not go to college). I'd like somone comfortable in jeans and a tee as well as a nice evening dress; likes camping and the symphony (or theatre); is tender and compassionate, yet strong.

Meet a soulmate from Windsor, United States. I have a constant yearning for knowledge, whether it be through travel, reading, working, socializing etc. Europe, Southeast Asia, The Caribbean, Central America and New Zealand are amongst the many places I've been. Some work related and some for fun. I'm a bit of a history nut, a lover of various music, an avid reader and chef. I've owned restaurants and have worked extremely hard to get to where I am currently. Owning your own business can be amazing, maddening, all consuming and the list goes on. At the end of the day, I truly enjoyed the challenge and learned a ton. I'm now finally getting into that mode of 'there is more to life than working 60 hours a week'. My match would be someone who is comfortable with themselves, confident, well read and traveled. Intelligence is a total turn on. I enjoy biking, hiking and hitting the gym, but downtime at home is extremely important. I eat well, keep my body and mind in great shape and am financially astute. I'm really not into the whole material thing and although I do follow certain media via the internet, I don't even own a t.v. I do take my career seriously, but I try to approach life in a light hearted way. There's so many facets to what make people tick, but this is a very brief synopsis of myself. Drop me a line if this piques your interest and good luck with your search!
