Date men and women from California, United States. I have a good life with great friends, a great family that is unfortunately too spread out and enough opportunities for goofy adventures to keep it all interesting.
Traveling and sharing a laugh over an unsuccessfull charades game always makes for an interesting travel story for everyone involved. Bonus points for making this game extra interesting when you're at a port in Egypt surrounded by military guys and truck drivers in a place that looks like the west oakland docs late at night. Ah...good attitude and smiles were pretty important that night.
I'm grateful that when faced with problems, I can chill, take a deep breath, and get creative with how issues can be worked out. This method has been working out well...so I'm going to be keepin it up.
Looking to meet some new people to explore the city, take some day trips outsie of the city, and just kind of shake up my normal routines and hopefully meet someone cool while were having fun.

Date people from California, United States. Hello. Thank you for taking the time to read my profile. I am a charming and witty young lady who is looking for someone to share this beautiful life with. Companionship is wonderful when two people share similar life experiences, strong chemistry, and most of all a loving and supportive friendship. I am looking for someone who will be my best friend, and my favorite partner to do what ever we dedicate our hearts and minds to. I grew up in Northern California: Humboldt County, Lake Tahoe, and then San Francisco. I have lived in the city most of my life apart from traveling and studying in L.A. and London. I love the city for many reasons. I love it for its natural and stylish beauty, for the different ethnicities that live here and contribute to the culture making it rich and interesting, for the different and interesting events that take place, and for the open minded, yet intelligent, and respectful people who live here. My passions are design, dance, and having great people in my life. This is how I try to live day to day encompassing these aspects and keeping a balanced yet rich life.
Meet a woman from California, United States. A great mix of 'girlie girl' and 'tom boy , yet ready to throw a football, boomerang, or baseball around any time. In all honesty, mind you I am not the least bit stuck on stupid or ego ( we all have that, lol) or hype. The one thing that my closest friends (that would be male)would say about me is that I get it, whether at a sporting event (a Red Sox/Steelers fan, don't ask... lol or in a professional/ social environment it may take a minute to sink in (or several) no harm in that; I would rather get it right the first time. Outgoing and engaging, with a pretty sharp wit. I can chat it up with anyone. I'm pretty even-keeled, and tend to take the high road and avoid unnecessary drama. I do have a strong personality, independent, self confident, feisty, sexy, passionate and cynical - I enjoy being active indoors and out, just got a subscription to DIRECT TV - yippie. I am OPEN to trying anything twice. WE all make mistakes, whether in business or in personal; the idea is that you figure out what went wrong and why; not just throw in the towel - that is a poor man's excuse; If things /or the situation doesn't pan out, say something then not days down the road. If you are curious simply ask. I have been told I am a bit too intense; as with most things; it's simply a matter of warming up to..
What I am ISO ...
Individuality makes life interesting. A strong work ethic along with communication and high energy level r important for the long haul, along with the elusive intangible - chemistry!
The laundry list has been simplified, lol - sexy, well spread ( books, sports, home training, dental insurance ( your smile, lol), grounded, honest, ambitious, and posses a sense of humor. ( ok so I tried, hahaha)
Simple questions that some never think of letting loose from their lips. These are questions that show interest in others and show an ability to care for more than just yourself.The goal is to perhaps someday, cross paths with someone who piques my interest enough to ask to look inside my Timbuktu while letting me look inside his Chrome ;D // with the realization that while they are not similiar, they do make a good fit.
the gentleman in the pic is one of my brothers.
Date a soulmate from California, United States. Ciao! Thanks for checking out my profile. Well, it seems that life is full of surprises sometimes, but also of second chances, I believe. So, here I am, searching for my new mate to share all the good things life has to offer… well, rain or shine of course. I am looking for a like-minded, honest, passionate and emotionally mature man not opposed to the idea of a long-term relationship if the road leads that way. Other traits I really appreciated in a man are character,being open minded, well traveled, interested in world affairs not just local news, passionate about what he does and believes in, and willing to give and take. If you love good food and good wine even better :) Also, I am not tied to San Francisco or United States for that matter. There are too many great places to see, explore and live.
As for me, I am from Europe originally (Italian/Spanish), petite, fit, passionate, honest, loyal, open minded, witty and smart, sometimes a bit sarcastic but all in good fun. Yes, I can laugh at myself when the situation calls for it. I look and feel considerably younger than my age. I am actually 45 but decided to put down 42 after I kept getting emails/winks from men aged 55 and up. No offense gentlemen, but I'm looking for somebody closer to my age group with similar interests. Fact is, I could easily get away with saying I'm in my thirties, but I really didn't want to go that route.
I enjoy many activities and have many interests such as photography, learning new things (useful or just for fun), traveling all over the world (all my family is in Europe), fitness and health, hiking, cooking, etc. I also enjoy engaging in more adventurous endeavors like skydiving, heli-boarding, etc. once in a while. But then again, sometimes it's just nice to stick around the home turf and enjoy the simple pleasures in life. Like a picnic at the beach or a nice home cooked dinner. Or cuddling up on the sofa and watching a movie. I am a very affectionate person and would hope to find somebody with a similar disposition.
As for my style, I am very comfortable in a little sexy black dress and high heels for a night out or in jeans, t-shirt and flip-flops hanging out at a BBQ or going sailing. Being Italian and a designer, I do have a pretty keen eye for details and really appreciate anything that's well designed (from buildings to furniture to fashion to everyday objects, etc.). I do value a man who knows how to dress and has the confidence to pull it off. I find confidence a very appealing and sexy quality in a man. I also tend to gravitate towards men with a bit of an edge, who have opinions and who know what they want.
Overall, speaking from my past experience, I know the value of sharing your life and special moments with a significant other and caring for each other. It makes life all the better. Having said that, I know you are out there and I canРІР‚в„ўt wait to meet you and hoping for mutual attraction and chemistry to get the spark going. BTW, I don't answer to winks emails with no picture(s).
Meet men and women from San Francisco, United States. I endeavour to post recent pics (within the last month or so), (by any means necessary--even if its makeshift iphone portraits in my smoky boat mirror)...out of courtesy to you folks. how about you do the same? I could easily tell you that I was 30ish or so, and you would believe me, but I see nothing honourable about lying about one's age. How about you do the same?
about me: i dont lie about my age (or anything else). pics are recent. I value good manners. People who value being respectful and considerate to other people rank very high on my list. i enjoy a good show or event, but i'm not a big partier. I would much more lean towards self-generating activities.
low maintenance . low tech.hi-fi.bike rider.boat rower. laugher. brooder. cat napper.occasional lipstick-wearer. map-reader.wanderer.news junkie. night owl. bleeding heart (secretly). aspiring sailor. respectful..reverent, and equally irreverent when i can get away with it..decent speller. loyal person. I eat , breathe and sleep, just like you . Sometimes i enjoy staring out in to space and thinking nothing at all just as much as doing something completely engaging and involved.
I like:Bulgakov, cowboys, semantics, Ghengis Khan,garlic, McSweeneys, the Himalayas, laughing,Vikings, yoga, the dark side, a handsome lagomorph, Iceland, Grizzly Adams, lupo alberto,folk tales, fox tails, coffee, chocolate, warriors, palindromes, CHINA past and present, chewing on sugar cane ,Yeti, cute boys (which here means "35 or over.."..sorry youngsters..) ,alchemy, snow, processes, heroes and anti-heroes alike, bioluminescence, West Virginia. I sometimes temporarily fixate on shiny objects...only temporarily..
I don't just "like" music. Its like oxygen to me: vital...what kind? every kind. (it irks me when people say "everything except country and rap"...hello bluegrass...johnny cash even. ..and whats wrong with a little Nasty Nas? public enemy? come on.)
looking for: people who have figured out how to cast aside fear and live life true to themselves, whatever that means to them. those people are my heroes... and/or perhaps........a 1969 lincoln continental with suicide doors, tom brown jr, world peace, the perfect phaal (sp?), a partner in crime, a life of crime, perhaps, a few rares singles on vinyl /which i saw at a record store in London a few years back and could *kick* myself for not getting/....(just kidding about the life of crime)
Still in the honeymoon phase with rock climbing. I wake up every morning thinking about it, and about every other day, i hit the climbing gym and do it . fair warning.
cliff notes: I would rather laugh than cry, i pick my battles, i don't sweat the small stuff and while i don't have a rigid list of *must-haves* in a person, i know what to avoid. (I have a hard time tolerating people who are otherwise, but i'll try anything once. Time turns tragedy into comedy),
Date someone special from San Francisco, United States. Okay gentlemen... I'm new to all this internet dating so bare with me! I love to have fun and don't ever take anything for granted...

Meet people from San Francisco, United States. I love being active and spending time outdoors. I snowski, waterski, jog, hike and love to spend time at the beach. Traveling is a passion of mine-- especially to Europe. So far I've been to Italy, Spain and the south of France and hope to return soon - I'd love to visit Greece, Paris and return to Italy!
A great night for me is cooking a fantastic meal with someone special, sharing a nice bottle of wine and just enjoying each other's company. One of my favorites meals to cook is turkey meatball lasagne. But I also love trying new restaurants, and I'm just as at home at the restaurant Boulevard as I am at a neighborhood taqueria or deli.
Music is a big part of my life and I listen to anything from opera to RB, but my favorites are Alicia Keys and Andrea Bocceli (just to name a few). I love to go dancing - it's a great way to let yourself go and forget about any worries!
I also cherish quiet time-- enjoying a soy-latte, extra hot, at a coffee shop, watching movies at home.
My goal is to make a difference in people's lives by being loving and supportive. I'm an optimist - I focus on the positive. I surround myself with honest and good-hearted people- this makes life much more fulfilling and enjoyable. I know that the best times I've had are usually more about the company I've had than anything else.
I am looking for a man who enjoys life and likes to travel. I find intelligence very attractive. If a man can make me laugh that is a bonus. I am looking for a man of integrity and someone who is a true gentleman.
Date a woman from San Francisco, United States. I grew up in Northern California and studied journalism in San Diego. I feel fortunate to live in SF, but miss the SoCal beaches. I played junior tennis. I lucked into working in travel/hospitality PR for ten years and then started my own business. I love working with the media (Am I allowed to say that?) and helping clients tell their stories.
I enjoy good conversations, clever movies, live music, bikram yoga, hiking, restorative yoga (aka nap time), dogs, and anything that involves the outdoors and sunshine.
I am currently taking French classes. Up next? Photography and writing.
My friends would say (if I asked them, but I didn't. Who does that?) that I am friendly, silly, smart, curious, and very easily amused.
I gravitate to men who are down-to-earth, intelligent/funny, thoughtful, curious, and don't take things too seriously.

Hopefully you do, too.
