Date men and women from United States / California / Mission Beach, 41 year old

Date men and women from California, United States. Hey there! Some quick words that describe me are: intelligent, handy, witty, laid back, positive, adventurous, active, driven.
I guess you could say I’m a man of many trades; I like to dive into anything that sounds interesting or exciting (literally!); I’m Scuba-certified and I’ve had a professional career in Tall Ship Sailing for 5 years, getting to sail around all over the world from the Carribean to New England to a transatlantic trip and creating unforgettable experiences along the way. I was attracted to a career in Law, so I put myself through Law School in my thirties and became an Attorney. Always excited by a challenge, I trained to be in the Navy SEALs and FBI. Thrilling for sure, but ultimately decided I wanted more of a life so I broke free of that and continued doing Legal contracting. I live by the beach and surf just about every day, so a girl who also loves the beach and can join me in the water is a plus! I’m also a big fan of traveling and trekking the unknown; My favorite places to date have been beautiful Antigua (seriously Paradise defined) and Ecuador. Next up on the list is either Southern Africa or Egypt.
So there’s a little about me but there’s definitely more than meets the eye. Overall I’m an adventurous, open-minded and easygoing guy who loves challenges, new experiences, and being out there living life. I’m looking for a woman who’s also adventurous and carefree, who is smart AND sexy (is it possible?), open-minded and can challenge me sometimes. Also a kind and honest woman with a solid head on her shoulders.
An ideal first date with me would include a great dinner somewhere by the beach so we can watch the waves crash, stimulating conversations with some good flirting and witty banter thrown in there, and would end in some great goodnight kissing. I’m looking for a girl who I have a really comfortable connection & chemistry with -- to partner up with me and take over the world! : )
If this sounds like it’s up your alley then send me a message and let’s talk!

Meet a man from California, United States. I'm originally from Kansas (turn-offs include "Wizard of Oz" jokes), but moved to California because I have always felt drawn to the ocean...even though it took me 25 years to finally see it in person. I enjoy spending time in the ocean, whether it be surfing or snorkelling, yet I'm still convinced that I swim in the ocean like a Kansan. I have enjoyed my career as a biologist because I am constantly learning on the job, yet it also affords me the opportunity to have a life outside of the office and a chance to kick back. It would be great to share experiences such as swimming with the leopard sharks at La Jolla Shores, discovering a cool local band at Bar Pink or the Harp, or dancing until closing time with a fun-loving, intelligent woman who enjoys philosophical debates as well as corny jokes. Coming from the Midwest, I really appreciate honesty and keeping it real. Surfers and music lovers are definitely encouraged to apply!
