Date women from United States / California / Leucadia

Date someone special from Leucadia, United States. This is where I am supposed to tell you all about me right? This is the hard part, as I really don't love talking about myself. I think it is easier to show a person who you are over a period of time.
I will give it my best shot though!
I'm a bit of a conundrum (or so I've been told). I grew up with all brothers and I work in a male dominated field but I love to be feminine. I would never be described as a girly girl but one who likes to sweat, work out and get dirty but then will turn around and enjoy a sundress and a good glass of wine at the beach.
I enjoy life and being outside. Working out, being by the water, reading a good book, cooking, traveling and trying new things, are tops on my list. I'm dying to try SUP! I love hot weather..think Palm Springs and anywhere tropical with a beach. I grew up with seasons and also love to be in the snow and see the seasons.
Reading the paper while people watching at a local coffee shop is something I secretly love to do. (I guess it's no longer a secret).
I'm grateful for my close friends and family. I have the best parents in the world and they always have been and always will be my role model and biggest cheerleaders.
I would like to meet someone who already knows who they are and are comfortable in their own skin. Someone who loves their job and has their own identify but would love to share time with someone just as confident and secure. I think I should also mention this person has the ability to laugh out loud!

Meet a woman from California, United States. I am a nice, relatively attractive women. I like to think I an intelligent and well spoken. I moved from Seattle to southern California last year to be near family. My beautiful daughter is recently married and is soon going to make me a Gramma, one of my long time ambitions. Family is very important to me. I try to spend lots of time with my daughter and her family and my niece that lives nearby and her family.
I try to get out for long walks every day. I think it is so good to keep active. A nice long walk is good for the soul. Clears the mind and gives one energy.
I am looking to find a friend and companion. If that leads to more, lovely. If not, one can't have to many friends. Someone who is active and fun, kind and gentle, warm and affectionate. Someone with a happy outlook and a wonderful smile.

Date someone special from California, United States. Hmmnn.. difficult to be modest yet honest. If I were to ask my friends, I hope they'd say creative, attractive, bright, great sense of humor, affectionate, romantic and a terrific friend. Laughing together rates high, good conversation does too. Keeping in shape by walking and exercising has to be in here somewhere. Getting energized by travel to Europe, just returned from Prague and Paris,especially feel at home in the lake district of Italy, spur of the moment trips, going to museums, plays, movies, books, hanging out and getting comfortable - that's what feels right to me. Kindness, graciousness, honesty and consideration rank very high. I'm a fine artist a digital artist and adjunct instructor in digital design. I have an upbeat attitude and find the classroom of life pretty amazing. I trust that "pull" I get to certain people. I honor my feelings and would honor yours.
