Meet a man from Santa Cruz, United States. Some things about me: I love what I do--professor (film), filmmaker (fiction, documentaries, and ethnographic films), musician (brand-name conservatory graduate), and an incorrigible dilettante (in the best sense, if there is one). I have lived most of my life in the U.S. since early adolescence (I was born in Israel), and I live in a beautiful area where I try to take advantage of its "riches" as much as I can by hiking, bicycling and gawking at landscapes whenever possible. Being a father to a funny and interesting 23 year-old daughter, films--of course, the arts, music, and trying to keep up with "The New Yorker" also occupy a major portions of my life. I also like spending as much time in Paris (the city of endless walks and non-stop patisseries), reading, cooking with a good friends, conversing, eating delicious French cheeses (with some apropos wines, of course), and being quiet--doing seemingly nothing. But I don't have a sweetheart in my life... someone to be my buddy, my love, and my co-twinkler.

Meet a soulmate from Santa Cruz, United States. I am an artist and instructor. My favorite art medium is sculpture.I have been teaching a artist /blacksmithing class for the past 25 yrs and have found it to be a very rewarding experience. During my school years I worked in probation as a counselor and ran a program for juveniles. This was a great experience and it gave me an extensive background in psychology and working with and supervising people. Besides art and teaching, I appreciate classic cars and motorcycles and enjoy collecting and restoring them. To pay for all this I have been fortunate to invest in good property and make sound investments. I am looking for a lady who is self aware and into enjoying the subtle beauties of life. She must have honesty as a high priority, first to her self,then to me. Happy is also a high priority. A negative soul will never see beauty. Thank you...
Date someone special from California, United States. My life is like a doughnut, rich and full on the outside but with a hole in the middle. The part that is missing is a woman to love, to feel passionate about, to be a friend, partner and lover. I’m looking for Ms. Right, not Ms. Right Now.
I’m easy-going, casual, optimistic, cheerful, generous, kind, affectionate, and emotionally available. I’m also honest, trustworthy, reliable and compassionate. I’m smart, articulate and well educated, a good guy, a nice guy. I have a good sense of humor and enjoy laughter. I’m not possessive or dependent, nor do I have any drug, alcohol or anger issues. I have been described as "a quality guy" and "a catch".
Most people think that I am 10 years younger than I really am. I look younger and I have a youthful attitude and energy level. I’m 6’ 0” tall, 175 pounds, slender and fit. I keep in shape by working out 3 days per week. In the summer I work on occasional weekends as a whitewater raft guide. I also enjoy hiking, biking, sea kayaking, cross-country skiing and camping. I enjoy traveling, particularly adventure travel. I have been learning swing dancing. I like playing games, particularly bridge. I enjoy movies, but I don’t watch much TV. I enjoy beach walks, dinner for two, visiting with friends and photography. I like music, particularly folk, rock, blues, reggae, Americana and KPIG. I always go to Strawberry Music Festival. I sing in Pacific Voices. I work at home and have a flexible schedule which has allowed me to be able to do a lot of other things that interested me over the years. I have been able to be a very involved Dad. I designed and built 4 houses. I had a stained glass business. I make enough money to live comfortably, to own a house in Santa Cruz, travel and to save for retirement (which I hope to be able to do in a few years). I have a great relationship with my 32 year-old daughter. Being a Dad has been one of the greatest joys of my life. Now my daughter has a son, and I get to enjoy being a Grandpa.
I’m looking for a woman who is warm, easy going, and positive; someone who, like me, has worked on her issues and is committed to personal growth and good communication.

I would like to meet someone who is attractive and fit, who is youthful in appearance and attitude, who enjoys an active lifestyle and lives within 50 miles of Santa Cruz . It is important to me that a relationship includes a commitment to being open and honest. I mean more than simply not telling lies. I mean that each person needs to be willing to reveal their emotionally authentic self, to reveal their feelings and needs even when it might seem preferable to keep them hidden. I also think that it’s important to be sensitive, empathic, and supportive of your partner.
