Date women from United States / California / Topanga, 43 year old

Date a soulmate from California, United States. My hobbies include cooking, traveling, decorating, meditating, yoga and recently skiing. On my days off, if I am not doing errands & projects, I like to hike or I have my camera in hand taking pictures-- then the fun continues with photo editing. I am also an avid reader of nonfiction books.
I am not interested in players or ones who believe that their career is more important than relationships. And if you like a little silliness, spice & sweetness in your life, I can deliver!

Meet someone special from California, United States. Hmmm...where to even begin. I might be a bit more complex then can be expressed in a few sentences but I will give it a shot. Intelligent, passionate, caring, infinitely curious and always up for an adventure. I was raised to conduct myself with grace and class in all of my affairs. I try to seek out the humor in even the darkest of moments. I believe laughter, playing and having fun as often as possible is essential in life. Art, music, literature and other expressions of creativity feed my mind and soul. I appreciate beauty in all things and typically gravitate towards the aesthetically pleasing along with that which appeals to any of my other senses.
After working as a designer and product development manager in the fashion industry for 15 years I recently went back to school to pursue a second degree in an entirely different field (medicine). I have studied nutrition and various alternative healing methods for most of my life and am looking forward to making a career out of helping others achieve optimum wellness in their lives.
I have been blessed with a wonderful life and would love to find a worthy companion on the path. In the end it is all about that mysterious and elusive spark between two people, so rather then create a specific list of what I am "looking for" I will tell you a few things that I appreciate in a man...intelligence, wit, kindness, integrity and curiosity. Having a healthy appetite for the many things life has to offer is also very appealing. If you appreciate being in nature, spending time at the beach, eating good food, taking in some culture, exploring, and just relaxing, conversing and enjoying life then I am sure we will find plenty to entertain ourselves with should we decide to cross paths.
