Date men and women from Canada / Ontario / Thunder Bay, 55 year old

Date people from Thunder Bay, Canada. As a non member I am unable 2 respond....sorry.
I'm an independent retired special education teacher who works occasional contracts for a government program called Jackfish. I travel and live either nearby or on the reserves of First Nation people where I deliver an educational Basic Literacy Skills program. I value this opportunity because it allows me to use my teaching skills effectively....there is nothing more rewarding than knowing that u are making a difference. This opportunity is also great in the sense that I work when I choose, and I am able to experience a lifestyle different than my own; however, these environments coincide with my love of the outdoors.
I'm not much of a movie goer or TV watcher as I am extremely energetic and I need to remain active. I am both a spectator and participant for sporting events. As well, I go to the gym, train for running events, cycle, and swim. I also enjoy travelling, snowmobiling, snowshoeing, camping, landscaping, dog caring, reading, and knitting. I especially value the extreme fun times with my family and friends. It is in my life destination to live in a different country, for half years, for the remainder of my existence.
I believe that I can fit into most social settings; however, my preference is unpretentious non judgmental environments. Although I understand that money is a necessity for the things I enjoy and participate with, I also understand that true happiness needs to be internally motivated in order to be sustained. I am very much my own person who expects respect and honesty from a partner. Additionally, I am a determined person whose disposition compliments an individual who values me for who I am and not for who one wants me to be...I see personal change as facilitating one's self-growth and not merely as a relationship convenience. It is somewhat challenging to really know, understand, and perhaps appreciate me, but when trust has been established I am a very loyal, caring, and compassionate individual. I have adopted a direct and honest approach, and I most certainly understand it is not for everyone...what I value in myself is what I value in others.

Thanks for stopping by...really
Cheers and Chuckles

Meet someone special from Thunder Bay, Canada. I am a confident,energetic, intelligent and hardworking lady. I would like to work a few more years because I love my job. By then I hope to find a pleasant gentleman that would like to travel a bit in the winter and keep me company at camp in the summer. He should be hardworking and energetic as well so he can keep up with me, so couch potatoes and heavy drinkers can stay on their own couch. I love being outdoors most times of the year. I like water related activities. Let's not wait too long before we get together, life is short.

Meet a soulmate from Thunder Bay, Canada. I am a kind, caring, compassionate person who likes to be adventurous and yet at the same time likes to have home time as it's true "there's no place like home". I enjoy the outdoors and seeing a beautiful sunset or sunrise as well as listening to the music of a loud crashing thunderstorm. I am grateful for my 2 beautiful children as well as my health and I am grateful for the closenes my family enjoys. I am hoping to attract someone with some similar interests as myself but at the same time someone who has their own individual interests that they want to share with me. In a relationship I am looking for first developing a trusting friendship because without trust as a building block there isn't a strong foundation. From there loyalty,respect and a love that will deepen with each passing day.

Date people from Canada. You know me ...you will be able to challenge the "envelope of my boundaries". Why? Because you are a tad outrageous and you're determined. You go where others fear to tread. Your quest has made it so. BUT .. here's me in this world ... I dance to the beat of a different drum (my own)!I love dinner theater, romantic movies, exploring new places and being out-doors (in warm weather). On cold days I like to curl up by a warm fire with pleasant company (or a good book). Sitting by the water, meandering through old growth forests or working in my flower garden helps me to restore balance to an otherwise hectic life. I detest TV sports, complainers, and abrasive people and/or cartoons, and racial jokes (unless they are about yourself). I like being active but really hate regimented exercises!So far, my own company has been the most appreciative and enduring! BUT... I would like to find someone to share special times with - to laugh and to make make magic with ... to aim for the stars, even if it means settling for the moon! You have a strong sense of self, but you are generous and loving and, above all else, kind. You find humor in the moment and you are also intelligent and witty with an insatiable appetite for adventure. Most of all, while having an appreciation for the finer things in life, qualities like dignity, respect and helping others would be essentials for a happy life... Of course, like myself, you dream the impossible!!! ... AND YET ... WE ARE GROUNDED IN THE REAL WORLD where inspiration breathes magic into the mundane!.
