I'm a smart, attractive, creative woman with a great sense of humor, who enjoys good conversation,exploring new things and traveling. I'm happy, have a sense of gratitude, enjoy meeting interesting people, sharing common interests and learning from them. I'm easy going and playful, love music and the visual arts.

I teach elementary school art, which is 'a trip,' In my free time I exercise, read, love a good movie, enjoy lectures, museums and being with friends.

On weekends, when I'm solo, I volunteer at music and theatrical venues. Part of my summers have been spent traveling and I've been to some pretty interesting places. I like being immersed in a new culture while connecting to people with different life experiences. Travel also fits in to my interest in photography, writing and learning about the art of indigenous people.

I would love to meet a happy, healthy intelligent man, full of humor and positive energy to share life's simple, yet meaningful moments, enjoying the outdoors, being cozy indoors, sharing a meal, talking, watching a DVD or cuddling. Are you there???

......finding the 'up' side of things and using humor to alleviate the 'heaviness' of a situation that sometimes shows up in life. I don't 'get stuck' in the small stuff and try to appreciate the present.

is my smile.

I mostly read non-fiction books, enjoy independent films, most music especially jazz, world, folk and classics. My food tastes lean towards healthy, mostly vegetarian cuisine. I'm not fanatical and think food should be enjoyed and shared.

good health, friends, family, a sense of humor, passion for life and a means to support myself.

being connected to the present moment, what I'm doing, who I'm with etc. rather than ruminating about the past or guessing about the future.

volunteering @ a show or relaxing and enjoying a movie.

I'm a very open person in due time.

You share some of my interests
You enjoy good conversation and love to laugh
You know that relationships take time to develop and are looking to develop an honest, sincere, monogamous relationship
