I'm told that I've lived an interesting life: I've eaten giraffe in Kenya (its tasty!), trekked thru the Himalayas, been cage diving with Great White Sharks, hung out with wild gorillas in Rwanda, and volunteered in the Israeli army while living in The Middle East. In all, I've traveled to over 60 countries, mostly by myself- with nothing more than a backpack, a small amount of cash and an ample sense of adventure. I reckon one thing that I'm long on in life is perspective. Fortunately, I'm still a TOTAL GOOFBALL, so even though I'm all worldly and stuff- I never take myself too seriously. WORD.

Here in SF, I own my own business (which I scored a nice review for in the WSJ), but I really work for myself so I can keep a flexible schedule and do the things I love. More fun facts about me? I’m an accomplished photographer, world class scuba diver and a marathon runner. I dig the outdoors, and equally adore vegging at home. I’m a VERY sweet girl; affectionate, kind-hearted, and enjoy taking care of people (especially my fella!); which is surely one of my best and most evident traits. I'm easy, breezy, beautiful. I’m not perfect and don’t care to be; but I always work hard at learning and growing as I go through life, which is frankly how I’ve made it this far! Now- I’m ready to continue the journey with someone special; Someone who can not only keep up w/ me, but can also help lead the way.
***I''d prefer to meet someone who is also Jewish***javascrapt:smilie('')

First date? I'm a big fan of beverages. Hot? Cold? Its all good. That being clarified, I've created for you a handy list of A-LIST ITEMS that I look for in a guy; LET US BEGIN! I'd like to meet someone who's Attractive, Athletic, Affectionate, Adventurous, Age-Appropriate (Hey- a 2 for 1!), Available and "Alive." I guess what I'm describing is: Someone with a TYPE-A PERSONALITY!

Unfortunately, I'm very afraid of beards, Tom Selleck mustaches, "soul patches" and ponytails. I am suspect of people who don't smile in any of their photos, and particularly weary of those whose only pictures are taken in the mirror with a cell phone. He should be local and in his late 30's or early 40's. I'm on here looking for someone special, and am fortunate to have all the friends I need, so if you don't fit the above description, or you're not Jewish, then we are probably not the match I am seeking. Please note that I'm fairly petite, so to be candid with you- I'm not so into guys who are 6'3". I'm down with the not-so-tall guys in the world, I hear there's a surplus! It would also be extremely awesome if he has a nice family I could infiltrate on occasion to celebrate holidays with. I don’t have a ton of relatives left of my own, so I'm hoping there’s a Jewish family somewhere who'll be THRILLED that their son met such a nice Jewish girl. Word to your mother.
