Date men from United States / Alabama / Montrose, 59 year old

Date single man from Alabama, United States. I am at a stage in life where I am lightening up my professional responsibilities so I can slow down and smell the roses. I enjoy my work, but realize it is time to find balance through adventure, fun and travel. I am a runner, clocking 12 miles on the weekends, and try to eat in a healthful way. I have so many activities yet to explore, including ocean kayaking, whitewater rafting, snow skiing and jet skiing, and traveling to many countries all over the world. I would like to discover and experience new cultures and cuisine with a wonderful traveling companion.
To give you a synopsis of anyone's character and personality in such a small space is somewhat like asking Beethoven to only play the most important notes of a symphony! I am generous and compassionate, and a loyal friend. I believe in the core values of integrity, honesty, trust and respect, and I surround myself with people of the same mindset. I have a great sense of humor, but I do not profess to be a comedian or a clown. I do love making others feel comfortable and can get downright silly once I get to know someone. I am affectionate, warm,, and a great snuggler and enjoy showing my partner she is loved. I expect the same from her. Argueing, drama, excess tension, and turmoil are to be avoided because life is too short to fill it with strife. Maintaining peace of mind is a major goal and source of happiness for me.
I can be both outgoing and introspective, so a woman who is sociable but also able to enjoy unplanned leisure time and simple pleasures such as watching a sunset or enjoying a beatiful landscape (in person or in a painting) would be attractive to me. She has a sense of humor so not to take herself or life too seriously. My ideal match is easy going and unpretentiouswith a passion and zest for life and romance. She enjoys communication, from global topics to the wordless shared intimacy of a quiet embrace.. My hope is to meet a person who is excited about dating and adventure, with the possibility of a long-term relationship in the future.
I'd just like to add...
I would especially enjoy meeting someone who would like to practice dancing with me. I have been taking ballroom dancing lessons at Arthur Murray for a while and need someone to practice with. They are teaching me salsa, mambo, merengue, rhumba, swing, fox trot,tango , and waltz.
I've taken many lessons but need practice to get the steps down. If the woman isn't familiar with these all the better since as they said in medical school: the best way to learn something is to first watch it, then do it, then teach it. Also it is fun and romantic, and would be some free dance instruction for you since Arthur Murray lessons are very expensive.
This also could allow Cupid to do his thing leading to a potential romantic relationship which I am definitely up for.
