I'm an active 62 year old. I put my life on hold for quite some time, due to family obligations. But, I'm now getting out and enjoying life again. I like to ride my off-road bike with my dog. Recently, I bought a sailing kayak (yes the dog comes along sometimes). Went skiing for the first time in 15 years, this past winter... pleasantly surprised that I didn't kill myself. I was once a certified scuba diver, and I used to play a lot of tennis and volleyball.


If you're not the outdoorsy, athletic type, no worries... I am also quite the couch potato :) I do have some favorite TV shows and enjoy movies, music, and art (that isn't to arcane). I almost always take a camera with me when I go biking, hiking or kayaking.


I have traveled extensively. Spent a summer in Kenya, while in college, been to China, Europe several times, and to Cuba (where my mother grew up). Right now, I'm doing more domestic road-trip type traveling, but plan to do some international travel in the future.

Hanging Out With Friends, The Movies, Trying New Things

Not too stressful... open, relaxed and honest. Comfortable enough to share a few personal warts, without obsessing over them.

Surfing... I grew up (and live) near the beach. I body surfed as a kid, but only tried a board once, briefly, just before starting college. I'm thinking about trying surfing, sometime this year. Just need to get in a little bit better shape, first.

Very Liberal

To relax, explore, and rebuild my social life. After I decompress a bit more, I also want to do some volunteer work. Right now, I donate to causes I believe in, but want to eventually get more active. I was very politically active (on the "far left") back in college.

It should be obvious, I'm pretty eclectic in my tastes and activities. Right now, I'd say just about anything that gets me out of the house--and doesn't involve business or doctors--is fun.

I'm a sporadic reader. I read newspaper and science magazines regularly, but go through phases of avidly reading books... then not.

Empathy, Good Looks, Intelligence, Sensitivity, Thoughtfullness

Someone with whom I have some chemistry, both physically and emotionally. Attraction, for me, is not easily quantified, it's just something I feel. Unfortunately, I'm sometimes kind of thick, and don't recognize when the attraction is mutual.

Friend, Intimate, Committed
