Date a soulmate from Del Mar, United States. Well, this computer dating thing is most interesting. I have to admit, that I have not yet e-mailed or contacted anyone yet. But, there are some gorgeous and interesting ladies here.
A bit about me. I am very interested in the asian culture. My asian travels (to a great extent on surfing trips) have taken me to Japan, Bali, Jakarta, Thailand, the Mentawis and Fiji. I actually think of Hawaii as somewhat of an asian cutlure, as well.
I would like to go to Cambodia, Vietnam and Laos next. Then follow with a trip to China at some point.. Not to surf, but to explore and experience the culture.
As far as finding a mate, that is my goal in joining Match.com.
I am not a "Gaslamp" or nightclub person, so my friends encouraged me to try this. My experience in dating in North County is pretty slim. I mean I have but, the places to go are kind of dull. Like how many times can one go to the Del Mar Plaza or to happy hour looking for love. It isn't there.
Falling in love would be the best, I have not had the genuine love of a great woman in a while. Not by choice really, it is just that over the last four years sadness visited my life that made me somewhat emotionally unavailable. Basically, I had a life changing ski injury and the deaths of several very significant people in my life. The pain of the loss of loved ones was something that I had never experienced.
I want to live life again and enjoy it with a lovely woman.
The area I live in, Coastal North San Diego County, read the beach, is fabulous. From the sound of the surf to the sunsets, the ocean is life's energy. My roots were in the surfing culture so I miss the days of old that were, yes a bit bohemium and care free. Being in the ocean all day, sun baked, salt on the skin, wildly happy !!!!
I did not have children when I was married (ex's choice), but I love them. Any age, they are a blessing. so if you have them, that is not an issue for me. If they are young and at your home even better. Children keep us all young and active.
I look and act much younger than my age, it is a gift of being a blend of Swedish and Norwegian. The red hair and freckles may be part of it too !!! Perhaps that is why I am attracted to dark haired asian women.......totally opposite of a scandinavian heritage.
I am self employed and have been blessed with a few good real estate investments, which allow me to taste a bit of freedom from the doldrums of life. My mood is generally positive and the woman that may be interested in me, I hope would be the same. She would have a sense of humor, be comfortable in being herself.
I love to explore and can afford to travel, latest trip was just this year it was a 14 day fishing trip south of Pt. Loma, where we traveled 1400 miles south on a 105 foot boat the Red Rooster 3, to fish Clipperton Island and the Hurricane Banks (look that up for fun). I fished for Ahi (yellowfin tuna) and Ono (wahoo).
I love being on board ships and I would appreciate a woman that would like to go on cruises !!!
A strange quirk I have is I like to go to places and watch people. Places like street fairs, airshows, art shows and openings, the Old Globe, Charger and Padres games, even Disneyland is fun to me. One dream I have is travel to the French Open or Australian Open Tennis tournaments.
I appreciate woman who shares the joy of cooking and also enjoys being taken to go shopping for herself. A woman who is creative would really be appreciated and if she is affectionate that would be a blessing.
