Rather than amplify what the Q&A format reveals, perhaps the real question is - what do you like? A guy who is kind and thoughtful with an easy smile? Theater, music, hiking, cycling, farmer's markets, being out of doors, different cultures, travel to far away places? Dressing up, dressing down? Eating well and being active? Being with friends and family - good conversation? Basically, I enjoy life's adventures and all the things the Bay area has to offer. I've also got an altruistic bent - giving back for all the good fortune life has given me and mine - and wake up happy just being alive.

Living exactly where I want do, doing just the kind of personal and professional stuff that makes me happy.

Being a friend and confidant, getting things done, making things happen and having them go right. Getting better at road biking.

My Mom always said I have a face that people talk to - a smile given is usually returned.

Water for Elephants, Tortilla Curtain, NY Times. Foreign, indies, silly stuff, any kind of well-prepared food (thank you for cooking!), any kind of well-performed music...

Friends, family, meaningful work, exercise/outdoors activity, cultural arts, loving kindness.

Things beyond my self - relationships with others, political changes, theater and performing arts, wide-ranging discussions, why things are where they are, what and where next to explore in new adventures.

Out doing something cultural with a friend or getting ready to head out for an active weekend biking, hiking, or checking out events in the City.

I really do like opera.

You are a happy and active woman who likes to laugh and do lots of different things. Who is comfortable dressed up or dressed down and wants to share the company of a down to earth guy who wants to travel widely, and enjoy the performing and visual arts as well as outdoor adventures here in California.
