Meet a soulmate from British Columbia, Canada. If my friends were to describe me I think they would say I'm a guy who doesn't talk too much but always means what he says...I guess they might say the strong silent type.
I've done many things that I'm proud of, but will save them for live conversation.
I'm very grateful for all of the life experiences I've had, all the good and bad times are what mould us into the people we are today. We've all seen people who have so little, so I make sure to always be grateful for all the good things I have.
I would like to meet someone who is sure of herself, and knows what she wants, ideally she would be just as comfortable in bluejeans and sweatshirt as an evening dress.
What would I like in a relationship hmmm...how about honesty. Someone who likes to be spontaneous, and adventurous, someone who would be into going somwhere on a moments notice just because we can. I but also loves the quiet nights in front of a fire. I love motorcycles, I have had 3 Harleys in the past and want to get another to ride across Canada, preferably within the next coupleof years...the list is long.
I'm passionate about a great many things, again most of which I'd rather talk about in person. First and foremost however is my son and his well being, as well as continuing to grow spiritually.

Date someone special from British Columbia, Canada. I am pretty down-to-earth, warm and easy-going by nature, empathetic, self-aware, capable and then again altogether too in touch with my inner child and fun-loving. I am a creative person and have spent much of my life making art. I need a nice balance of social activity and quiet space both of which I am happy to share with someone. I have lived in the city and in the country and enjoy parts of both. I presently live in a small mountain town where life is pretty close to nature (chopping wood for the wood stove, etc. to keep warm in the winter). I have a great social scene here and, as anyone who has ever lived in a small community would know, you have to work at making social activity happen or it is deafeningly quiet - no distractions. On the other hand, dating someone in this small, intimate community can get to be a bit too close for comfort. I get away to the city from time to time for work and get the odd excuse to travel. . Long distance is also alright at this point. I am willing to relocate if things get serious, although I am not in any rush to rush into anything. I am open to 'life' as it happens. Let's take things form there.
I don't have kids but I have nieces, nephews and neighborhood kids who I adore. I do love to travel and the last place I visited was India last November. It changed me. Why India? Not sure entirely except that it drew me (and I received a fellowship to attend an art residency there so why not!). I don't make millions (hello...artist) and my lifestyle is by choice and my needs are simple enough. Even so, I am wealthy when it comes to pretty much everything else in my life- India showed me that.
I would like to meet a man who feels young for his age and is truly engaged in his life: someone who cares about his health, is confident and knows who he is. I find a man who feels comfortable dressed up but can also rock a dirty old pair of jeans sexy. For myself, I am not the kind of girl who is fixated on ''every hair in place'. A good balance of soft and tough, playful and serious would be nice. I am a good listener, good conversationalist and good humoured. Ideally, I would like to attract someone who is the same. Chemistry, of course, is all important, let's face it.
I am new at this online dating thing so I imagine that this info will get fine-tuned as I get better at it.
