Date men from United States / California / Joshua Tree, 39 year old

Date a soulmate from Joshua Tree, United States. New arrival in the Joshua Tree / high desert area; eager to meet people to socialize and explore the outdoor activities with in the area. Friendship and chemistry to start with though also intent on meeting a second half for the rumored bliss and Sunday morning omelettes. Okay, seriously... traveller on life's highway seeks same for companionship, mutual cooking and neck massages, LTR, and bringing each other back to earth when we've strayed out of our general orbit(s). Croce e delizia, delizia al cor...
Athletic, non-denominational, and even clean shaven upon request. Widely travelled, master's degree, and somehow developed a thing for salt bagels in the 90s. A fair amount of time working overseas has simply not been conducive to LTRs. In all seriousness, I do value family and honest, caring, mutually supportive relationships.
More than a few people have been confused why I'm out here in the boonies; I'm neither a meth lab manager nor a ranger ;) My work is with the military, using experience I gained overseas doing various projects. It's a good match for now; and I get to the Coachella Valley / I-10 corridor a couple times a week for a bit more civilization.
I was a pretty serious high school athlete and as such I'll always value physical fitness, though rather than going to gyms I prefer outdoor activities like running on a field or a trail, Ultimate, or a long hike in crisp weather.
Who I'm looking for, hmmm...someone interested in cultures / ways of life (in and) outside the US, an explorer who seeks unconventional answers, and someone not afraid to mix chemistry and passion for an explosive, synergistic, amazing relationship.
