Date a man from United States. Lately I've been feeling like I'm in my 20's again with the wisdom of a 56 year old. I was the parent at home with two great children who are now in their 20’s and making their way in life, and now it's my turn! I’m happy to try new things and I really enjoy talking and getting to know new people. I love silliness and believe that shared laughter is a great measure of friendship.
Music has been a strong part of my life both in my work and hobbies. I've had a fulfilling career as a violin maker and restorer, and continue to love the work. I've played music for years and love singing in a chorus that performs folk songs from around the world. I also love to cook and delight when people roll their eyes with pleasure over something yummy.
I want to find someone who likes being outdoors as much as I do, and who in addition to sharing some of my interests also has her own interests and activities that inspire her. I’ve enjoyed some traveling overseas, and I’d love to have a companion to share the thrill of exploring. Mostly, I want to find someone who is comfortable in her own skin, and loves the warmth and kindness of a happy relationship.
Meet a soulmate from United States. Kids are well settled and away at college, work is good, life is good in general. there is so much fun to be had. So many places to see and things to do but I don't want to do all of it by myself. I'm looking for a companion that can grow with me and keep me challenged and on my toes. Somebody that is curious and wants to know a little about lots of things. Adventurous and pushing the envelope a little, to try things we normally wouldn't think of doing. Somebody happy and very comfortable with themselves, where they are in life, and someone who knows what they want in the second part of life. I really click with people that are very smart and curious.
Date someone special from United States. Hi! Thanks for stopping by. My friends consider me a nice and intelligent person with a good sense of humor. I belong to a gym and I have actually been to it a few times. My passions include playing guitar, live music, movies, dining out, travel, working on my house or just hanging out relaxing with good company. I'm looking for an attractive down to earth, fun loving and intelligent lady who knows how to let her hair down. Sense of humor a must. A girl whose health in mind and spirit is important to her. Someone who is happy and still believes in love and shares some of the same interests and goals that I do.
Meet single man from United States. I would much rather stay in the background and out of the limelight, so writing about myself in a public forum is total anathema to me.
I am embarking on a new journey in life and want to find someone for friendship, companionship and more. Born in America, raised and educated in England (St John's College, Cambridge) and eventually, in a round about way ended up living and working in the San Francisco Bay Area. Lately, a really strong urge to somehow reconnect with my Japanese heritage has led me try to learn Japanese with somewhat limited success. When I Skype my parents in London I try to speak only Japanese but it is difficult. I enjoy watching Japanese dramas (subtitles required) and sometime anime.
I am quiet, especially around new people, so it takes me a while to loosen up and emerge from my shell. My favorite pastimes usually, but not always, involve the outdoors and nature in some way. I especially love rock climbing (usually in a gym) and hiking. I like to explore places and take lots of pictures to capture the moment. It doesn't matter whether it is a park, a museum, a textured wall, dew on a spider web - anything, anyone and anywhere that inspires a sense of wonder gives me great pleasure.
My lifestyle is simple and casual so I am a fish out of water where it comes to formal gatherings, fancy restaurants, bars, clubs, brand name goods, luxury cars etc. I have no interest in superficial trappings of a materialistic lifestyle.
