... I'm a photographer, a poet, a gardener, a lover of jazz ... a strong, sensitive and responsive man. I want a partner ... we begin with a friendship.
Laughter, common values and communication are important.
I live in principled, positive and constructive ways.
Being alcohol and drug free is a primary component in my way of living. This has been my way of living for 23 years.
I walk / hike regularly and enjoy delicious fresh foods and drinks.
I enjoy expression, open mindedness and peace. I live in the present moment with awareness, confidence, trust and faith. I value and appreciate nature.
We are not saints but ... I'm a gentleman who is dependable and very easy to get along with. I dislike arguing.
I enjoy good humor and good music, especially straight ahead, beautiful jazz. I love Afro Cuban rhythm.
I also enjoy digital photography and art very much. I value creativity and expression.
I like to cook and to prepare interesting & delicious foods.
I work full time M-F, 9-5. I work in advertising. Please have a similar schedule with lots of free time, and please live within a reasonable distance.
I would prefer to meet an attractive, very natural, very peaceful, mature and easy going woman, a non smoker with European, earthy qualities (she prefers no make up, prefers no shaving ... likes gardening, likes going barefoot, likes to wear comfortable dresses ... ), who is available and willing to spend time together with me as much as possibe on weekends and during the week. Weekend and vacation trips together are very important to me.
I am a romantic man who is thoughtful, gentle and firm, and enjoys sharing quiet, intimate, affectionate special times ... with one woman.

a walk along a trail with stops to talk and rest would be nice ... it is important to talk at depth and to reveal ourselves ... Be yourself...everyone else is taken!..(Charles Schultz)
