Ok, online dating is totally beyond me because the last thing I want to do in my spare time is be on my computer. But anyway, here it goes - I am a a marketing professional living in Venice. I am a half is glass full type person and enjoy being outside as much as possible! I grew up on Southern California and love everything about it - the beach, ocean, salty air, summer weather in January!
I am looking for someone who likes to grab a coffee/tea and head to the beach. I may bring dogs too:)

Meet someone special from United States. update - back in montauk, ny for the summer. and moving to venice in october. can't wait!!
i'm an abstract painter, a dj and an addicted surfer. * although i'm happy to report the addiction is waning. i'm too busy doing everything else!
i am very passionate person and i love the life i've created for myself. born and mostly bred in nyc - the last 5 years i've lived near montauk by the beach. i still love all the city has to offer - the galleries, museums, amazing restaurants, music, shopping, people watching, overall vibe and energy -- but i am now blown away all the time by beautiful sunsets over the the water and fields, gorgeous starry nights, making fires, walks on the beach, the strong sense of community, and the serenity.
i originally went to school for graphic design which i still love - but don't practice ( although i still design a logo or two)
i am also very turned on by architecture and interior design and was in heaven renovating and decorating my house. it's an incredible place to entertain and i'm in my zone cooking and hosting great dinner parties year round.
i like to be active and if i'm not surfing i'm in a yoga class or playing tennis (which i used to play regularly and just picked up again last winter). working on my paintings is one of the ways that i like to express myself - and the other is through music.
family and friends are most important to me and i feel lucky to have so many amazing people in my life. i love meeting new people, and exploring new places. my trips the last 5 years have all been surf destinations -some of which include: hawaii, peru, equador, costa rica, mexico.. except for jazzfest in new orleans -- my first time! was a blast.
i love reading a great book that you can't put down. i love to laugh. i give a great massage i'm told that i have very soft skin.

Date a soulmate from United States. ABOUT ME: I've been in L.A. for about 6 yrs., totally enjoying it. Love that you can be at the beach, mountains, or desert so easily... and you can steal fruit from your neighbors yard(technically it is not stealing, if it's hanging on your side)!I grew up in western NY state"wine/lake country"- small town, super beautiful. I spent a lot of yrs in NYC working as a designer. I miss a few things about NY, but definitely not the below zero temps or the blazing summers that smell like a combo of fermenting garbage, urine, & exhaust... waking up peeling the cat fur off of my cheek!
I love to travel! I eventually would like to combine my traveling w/ some sort of volunteer work, mixing fun & exploring w/ soul-filling/ give back time.
I would love to have children, if I met the right partner and that love thing happened. Though; perusing the profiles, I noticed that I seem to be dangerously close to or on the cusp of crossing that cut off point for a lot of you fellas(and may I mention, umhmm- clearing my throat- some of you are more ancient than I am)! Hmmm ? Remember, this is Los Angeles ... nobody looks their age! Something in the water!
I am looking for someone who is kind , relationship/ friendship minded, funny & bright.
Please NO men just looking for whoopy!

Meet a woman from Venice, United States. I moved from San Francisco to L.A. two years ago, and I have been living in Venice for almost a year now.
I like it here and I am very lucky to have good friends in the area. I very much enjoy what I do, my job involves working with people at all levels and from different backgrounds and I get to learn at least one new thing each day.
I have lived in both the East and the West Coast in the US and love the two -Washington DC, Chicago andSan Francisco- I am from Mexico. I am pretty adaptable open to change and I am always happy to welcome new things and people into my life.
I like art in every single form. Love food.
I donРІР‚в„ўt wear much make up...I am allergic...
I smile a lot...I laugh a lot...I believe it makes a difference.
I could never learn enough from somebody who enjoys life in the present moment.

Date someone special from Venice, United States. I have a frequent smile, a curious mind, a strong shoulder, a love and appreciation for life, a warm and generous heart, amazing friends and a family that I love and adore, tons of gratitude, empathy, guts, and a twisted sense of humor. I've got a fashion background and a creative spirit. Unconventional with a solid core. I laugh a lot. (Relatively) low maintenance. A girl's girl who loves and appreciates men. I'm grounded, fiercely loyal, and responsible, but not boring. I am a work in progress. Serious music lover of virtually all genres. Nomad in training. Yogi. Feminine but not girly. I'm flawed, but not fatally so. I'm complicated but not tricky. Evolved but not self-righteous. I'm serious, but don't take myself too seriously. Hip but not hipster-y. I get it. On a good day, I'm kind of a badass. ;)
I have a very independent, busy, happy, full life but I really enjoy being in and thrive in a relationship. I am looking for a true partner. I'm super open to someone with their own kids (I enjoy them) but probably not in having more of my own. My kids are 2 very cool, artistic, free-spirited boys, 16 and 20 who live with me and who I see as often as I can...which is unfortunately not too much nowadays. If you are looking to start a family from scratch I am probably not your girl. Full disclosure: I turned 43 this year. Not sure how that happened!
You? You laugh easily and often; you are supportive and adaptable, self-aware and strong in your own way, real and able to live and find happiness in the present, emotionally available and courageous, interested, and affectionate. Flexible. You are honest with yourself and with others, and live a life of integrity, joy, and purpose. You have a passion for something. Love music. Are sexy and sensual. Share. You're imperfect in a good way. You know life involves curve balls and bumps in the road, and can handle them with dignity and a sense of humor. Please have passport and strong urge to travel!
If I like you, I like you. It's not that complicated.

Date a woman from California, United States. IРІР‚в„ўm an authentic, down-to-earth girl with an enthusiastic outlook and the ability to find magic in the smallest details. an east coast transplant, i appreciate the joy of a snow day. i'm at my very best when immersed in nature. curious, creative and silly. also responsible, resourceful and grounded. I am deeply inspired by people who create. i never forget a face and learn through experience. I am a graceful diplomat and have a gift for making people feel good. open-minded and opinionated, extremely intuitive and tactile, i always speak my mind and can never tell a lie. passionate and compassionate, i love the ocean, mountains and rivers. I enjoy surfing and singing loudly while playing rudimentary guitar (although i could use help in all three areas!). i have no tolerance for litterers and have chased down a few to tell them so. i enjoy getting dirty, playing with kids, talking to strangers and living a healthy, balanced life. i believe it's important to see the world while i also enjoy nesting at home with good friends and a bottle of wine. i am an extrovert with shy tendencies and so many other juicy bits to discover beyond this cursory snapshot. i am normal, in the most extraordinary ways. really.
What am i looking for?...an authentic, down-to-earth guy with a warm heart and a good soul. trust, communication and passion are key ingredients. creativity and a sense of adventure are also important. i love people who make me laugh and smile. and while i'm not looking for 'ken' - i do desire chemistry in that know-it-when-ya-see-it kinda way that makes you instinctively feel amazing. he wants kids and will choose to make them a priority in his life when it's time. he is a nature-lover and enjoys exploring the fruits of the world. he is interesting and interested and would find my silliness charming and endearing. as for all the rest...we'll cross that bridge should it come.
