Date men and women from United States / California / San Rafael, 67 year old

Date men and women from California, United States. I am looking for a mature and independent woman to pal around with. Who knows where it may all lead to. I am independent and financially secure. I don't need a Mommy, as I am told many men do. I work in the finacial services world, own my home, love classic cars, do regular volunteer work, and like to dance. I raised my two sons as a single parent from when they were 9 and 7. They are grown adults now ... I am proud of that.
Let's talk and see if we have a connection ... why not ... there's nothing to loose.

Meet single man from California, United States. I find life magical.
I’m not afraid to be successful in the world and still be curious and sensitive.
I desire someone who has a sense of inner ground. I don’t mean big ego. I’m a generous being. Strong women do not frighten me if they are generous by nature.
I have a big heart. I care for people, even for strangers. One of the things very close to my heart is the non-profit work I do. I have been chair to a charity in New Delhi India serving the urban poor for 10 years. While I retired as chairman. I still go and work there since it pleases my heart. If you have seen Slumdog Millionaire, then you have seen one of the communities we serve, the garbage pickers.
The work in India has led to many travel adventures in Asia. I enjoy travel to places and people who aren’t Americanized. South America, Central America. Equally like to stroll around Paris to window shop, discover brasseries…
Eating out is a joy—something I enjoy sharing. I love fine dinners, classical music and shows. I had a great wine collection and have remnants left. I just took a 12 week cooking class to get over my ignorance and resistance to cooking for myself.
I love exploring! That can be an open vulnerable conversation, or it can be in nature. I am also equally comfortable just relaxing and having a good time. I’m very active and would love to find someone who’s active as well. I used to be a professional river raft guide and still do rivers. I have my own river raft boat. I hike in Yosemite every summer.
I have grown to like myself in the past few years and with this gift, I have learned to have very few judgments of others. I enjoy spending time with people and find myself supportive of them. I also enjoy time to myself. While I am not afraid to manifest what I want in the world, my inner world is more important to me. Without being too philosophical, how we view life changes everything.
I find nature the Divine's gift of beauty and a wonder to us human beings.
I’m protective of those I love.

Meet men and women from United States. I really believe that chemistry is the single most important factor in a relationship, which makes this very difficult to write, because I truly think this whole system is backwards. We can write and read about each other, email, speak on the phone, and then, when we finally meet, tell in about 30 seconds if there is anything there. That said, it is also important to acknowledge that it is very difficult to meet people in our everyday activities, and so we resort to this. And it's OK, maybe a necessity, if we are serious about meeting someone.
I am, indeed, serious about meeting someone. I have a full and wonderful life, with many family members and dear friends close by. I spend a lot of time with these special people. I also travel a lot, all over the world. I have a vacation rental business in Hawaii, Hanalei, on the north shore of Kauai to be more specific. So I go there two or three times a year. I live in a wonderful, charming home in San Rafael, with my two border collies, who keep me very active. We go hiking every day. I am looking for that special someone with whom to share both my life and his.
We are both sweet, sensitive, affectionate, smart, funny and fun to be with, active, attractive, intellectual, adventurous, love to travel, and have the financial independence to do so. We have minimal baggage (is there anyone who doesn't have any?), easy going, easy to get along with, sensual. loving, kind, altruistic, giving, generous, open-minded, liberal, have strong opinions but are not overbearing. We are open to new experiences, not rigid in our thinking, our outlook, or our opinions about anything. We love to spend time with friends and family, but really enjoy each other's company and laugh a lot. The chemistry that exists between us makes everything we do fun and exciting. I'm really not looking for someone just like me, but all of these traits seem important.
The man I seek is strong, but gentle. He is loving, affectionate, and not afraid to show his emotions or communicate whatever he is thinking or feeling. Open communication is essential. The lack there of has been the ruin of many relationships, as we all know. He should be able to see the humor in everything, not have a problem with anger management, be sensitive and caring when it comes to the needs and feelings of others. Did I mention loves to travel? And has the time and resources to do so? Let's go explore our world together, both near and far.
