Meet a soulmate from Santa Cruz, United States. Looking for fellow explorers as interested in traveling their inner world as well as the outer. I am a paradox who likes to break rules and yet I have a strong value system. I equally enjoy and appreciate fine dining or a plate of grilled meat at the county fair.
Although I am completely comfortable with who I am, I also strive for improvement. I appreciate the challenge of integrating the diverse aspects of myself, especially those I find challenging, so that I may have greater compassion and humility. I strive to remember that my greatest insights are often the result of challenging or painful experiences.
I am a successful entrepreneur fortunate enough to have a flexible work schedule which provides me the opportunity to be more present in my children's lives and to enjoy the vast natural beauty of this region. I am also very involved in my local community in board leadership roles at local non-profits.
Here are a few random thoughts that may provide you some insight about me.
• My New Year's Resolution is to find more opportunities to laugh.
• I regularly immerse myself in experiences in the natural world so that I may more deeply appreciate my connection with all living things.
• I strive to honor the truth in myself and of others especially when it is in conflict with my own. I find authenticity an attractive quality and work to be more authentic (It is a messy endeavor and I am not always up to the challenge but I guess that makes me human).
• Sex is great but making love when the experience transcends the physical and becomes a portal for experiencing the divine is ecstasy.
I would enjoy meeting women who are confident in who they are, not in all they do or say but fundamentally grounded in their self awareness and self appreciation.
I know that open and honest communication is critical to the success of any relationship but I would also like to spend time with someone who appreciates discussing a broad range of ideas and is intellectually curious.
Because I enjoy the outdoors so much having a companion that enjoys nature and natural beauty is important. Camping, surfing, hiking, skiing, snow-boarding, biking...
I don't believe that either of us will really know if there is a connection unless we meet. We all have our filters and those are fine at a meta level and great for screening but most important are the subtle nuances of how someone speaks (tonality, word choice), what their eyes communicate, body language and the quality of their heart. You can't truly know these things about someone until you are in their presence.
This all sounds so serious and very adult but there are playful aspects of me that are always seeking for a way to be expressed. My boys help remind me about what is really important and to remember to view the world through their eyes.
As I said in the beginning I am looking for fellow explorers with a sense of adventure. Each of us ultimately wants to be 'met' but I am patient and enjoying the process.
Have you ever been truly met, for a moment, a day, years? You know what I mean.

Date a man from Santa Cruz, United States. Me: Gentle and caring person. Balanced between intellectual pursuits and active lifestyle. Spiritual but not religious. Clean, drug-free, drink a few times during the month. Like good food, good company, stimulating conversation, a good laugh, a lighter look at the world. I can get down to business when necessary. I'm a Libra, so while I take a bit of time to make decisions, once made they're solid. I'm looking for someone I can share a laugh with, go see a movie, catch dinner or just go and hang out on the town and hopefully can make a deeper connection with.
You: Caring, kind, loving, passionate. Takes care of herself. Physically active. Loves to have fun and laugh.

Meet someone special from Santa Cruz, United States. I guess I'm active, fun, kind; like being social/going out/exploring places-- maybe catching a good band somewhere or talking for 3 hours over a dinner out. Going on a hike or checking out a beach. Discovering a new restaurant. Wandering SF, Big Sur, or going to some Bay Area festival. Hunting elusive wineries. Going to Giants games. Also like staying in when it feels like the right thing to do.
I like words, music, surprises.. Big fan of cool conversations, shared experience, trying new things, weekends away. Totally love my work, my friends, my life.
The people I like most are those who are engaged in the world and serious about their lives yet also fun, outgoing, and don't take themselves too seriously. Goofy is good. Standing up for what you believe, yet keeping an open mind. Sense of humor, love of music, curiosity, a natural ease in social settings, and an upbeat personality are probably necessary ingredients for me. I'm pretty easy to get along with...

Date single man from California, United States. I like to think i am laid back and low maintenance type of person. I have lived and loved and ready to do it again.
Looking for friendships first and seriousness second. I am looking for matches that can be happy on a low key bike ride or a trip to SF for a loud and sweaty show at a small club. Quick wit and the ability to make me roll on the floor laughing wins every time.

Meet a soulmate from California, United States. I see myself as passionate in the things I believe in. Not to the point where I look down upon someone with different beliefs, but it takes a lot to change my opinion. I realIy love when someone has different views than myself. It challenges my own ideas and provokes thought. I enjoy life and what it throws at me. I see myself as low-key, but my friends say I'm very social. I don't get it, but I'll say I'm somewhere in between.
I'm looking for a beautiful woman inside and out that is looking for a close relationship. I love a woman with humor and little drama. The woman for me is the one that can enjoy new things just because she's with me. I also have to enjoy new things just because I love being around her. I'm not looking for a woman that is exactly the same as me. The fun in life is to enjoy differences.
The most important thing to me is whether our hearts can combine and create that goofy love feeling so that it becomes hard to pull us apart. If you're reading this and you have some attraction...............
