Date men from United States / California / Mira Mesa, 32 year old

Date a soulmate from California, United States. I am a driven, active, intelligent and passionate person. I am curious and well rounded. I love to travel and enjoy meeting new people, and learning about new cultures. I am constantly amazed at the world around me, and extremely appreciative of my life. Health and family are extremely important to me, I take care of myself and want the same in a partner. My mom and I talk often, as well as my two younger sisters. Its just the four of us, as we lost our father a few years ago. I am close with my grandma too.
Traveling has been a big part of my life, I spent 3 months backpacking europe, another 3 in south america, and a few weeks in Thailand. I have been to Canada, baja California, Cambodia, Vietnam, Taiwan, and China as well. Next on the list is southern Thailand into Malaysia, Singapore and Indonesia. After will be central america, or maybe africa. Road trips are great too, and I have a lot of the US to see.
I just bought a new camera and have really delved into photography. Learning how to surf this summer is my main goal right now. I am working towards improving my diet (its not bad, but there is always room for improvement) and moving towards a more vegetarian style. I rarely eat sweets, but I have a sweet tooth. I believe in moderation in all aspects of life.
My name is Carl, and I was just trying to make light of the internet dating scene. I am looking for someone who has a sense of humor, and realizes that all of life should be fun, even though there are challenges (opportunities as I like to call them). Hope everyone finds what they are looking for.
