Meet someone special from Arcata, United States. Where to start? Like you I am more complex than a few words can describe. I may be described as somewhat reserved and quiet, but I am comfortable with it, and often am quite talkative and outgoing. I like my down time as much as a wild night of salsa dancing. Being a mom definitely defines me. I have a wonderful 11 year old girl. Her dad and I share custody. She is a big joy in my life. I was born and raised in Germany, but have been here for over twenty years now. I still have a little bit of an accent. I am a special education teacher, botanist, and student of zen meditation. I love exercising, but should find more time to do it. I love dancing, swimming, hiking, and riding my bicycle. I find peace in nature, and try to spend my free time outside gardening, hiking in the woods or at the beach, backpacking in the mountains, kayaking on the lagoon, or swimming in the rivers. IРІР‚в„ўm hoping to find someone who shares this love of nature. I love outdoor adventureI and open to try new things as long as they are muscle-powered.
I try to live in the moment, that means not letting my thoughts hang onto the past or dream about the future. ThatРІР‚в„ўs pretty much impossible, I know, but I like to try :-). I also try to be appreciate of every moment and to realize how all beings are connected somehow, and to exercise compassion to all living beings. I donРІР‚в„ўt expect my partner to have the same interest in zen but to have a similar outlook on life. I would like him to be positive, caring, and able of self reflection and self-improvement. And happy! Relationships are a give and a take, but both partners need to be emotionally self-reliant and independently happy to be healthy.

Date a woman from Arcata, United States. I am a down to earth clever generous person. I enjoy a good sense of humor and a rather subtle approach to life. The smell of fresh cut grass, the sounds of the ocean, a powerful wind can make me smile. I enjoy my friends and family. Old fashioned in a non old fashioned way. I enjoy a good book, a good champagne on no occasion at all, local food trucks, flowers of any type and intelligent conversations that make you wonder "how did we get on that subject" This is so difficult to write about myself, of wanting a connection again and not to sure how that will come about. Will I meet you in line at the grocery store, at the beach, drive by you and never know that we were supposed to be together, as friends lovers, partners. Separated for 5 years and very comfortable in my own skin. You are strong, witty, gentle, kind to animals and are concerned about our environment. You smell like you, you enjoy a good soak in the bath tub, a skinny dip at night, the solitude of time alone, a long drive to nowhere in particular. I find you interesting and you feel the same about me.
