Date women from United States / California / Oxnard, 37 year old

Date a soulmate from California, United States. I can describe myself only as a fine wine waiting to be discovered by someone with discerning taste. I am fun and easy going but know when it is time to be serious. I am not a serial dater, I don't hang out at bars, I do not hook up, nor do I play games with people's emotions. I am most comfortable in a relationship. I am approachable,a great conversationist and someone who is looking for a person to share some time with. I am a California girl who is not afraid to be herself and hoping to meet someone who will find it refreshing to have the company of a modern woman. I love what I do and think of it as my play time. There is never a dull day, I have attended several universties inlcuding some in Europe. I hold mutiple degrees, I am an accomplished professional but let's face it, none of it will help unless there is chemistry.
When I am not working I prefer to spend times with friends/family and trying out new things. So far, I have added to my list of first by going rock clibming, wine making, kickboxing, alpaca farming (don't ask) and I like to visit out of the way places and wing it. I enjoy traveling and experiencing other cultures but haven't done as much as I'd like lately. It comes down to this, it doesn't matter what I'm doing as long as the company is good. On my own I can be found enjoying day trips to Ojai just as much as traveling to Costa Rica. It would be great to have a companion that wants to experience new things and show me his favorites spots too. I am open to new expereinces but lets be honest, I will not be going sky diving anytime soon, although I've done it before. I have no children but do appreciate the nurturing nature of a man. If you have kids, I only ask that they be your priority. There is one deal breaker: my dogs. I'm not the crazy lady with the 30 animals but I am a responsible dog owner. Truth be told, I have found in dogs the qualities of the perfect companion: loving, trustworthy, loyal, protective and intelligent.
If you are a person of integrity, sincerity and a loving man, then you have the three top qualities I seek in anyone I spend time with. I am looking for someone who is seeking a partner and is willing to get to know me on multiple levels. I hope you are also secure enough to be with a strong woman and fun loving. Don't be afraid to be yourself and if you have a sense of humor, use it! There is a thin line all men walk; be manly without being a jerk and be nice without being a push over. I get it. I walk a similar line. I need to be intriguing without being aloof and sweet without being a door mat. Aren't we all just looking for someone who will accept us for who we are and bring out our best?
If anything you have read resonates with you or if you are interested in a friendship that develops into your greatest adventure, then I am the person you should meet.

Meet someone special from California, United States. I'm shy and quiet but my friends say I need to get out and expierience more of life and so here I am.
I'm ready to meet new people and hopefully find a wonderful lasting relationship.
I want to travel, meet people and start to enjoy life outside of my little box.
