Not one who generally likes to talk about myself, this exercise is interesting. I am a very down-to-earth woman who loves many things; hiking, traveling, laughing, being, cooking, talking, friendship and more. I am passionate about my family and appreciate others who are as well. I love cities and the country, the beach and the woods...ok, the only exception may be the desert, but when in bloom, even that is enticing. I love a cup of coffee or glass of wine (depending on the time of day) and a good book, or a good conversation or cooking together. Hard to capture one's essence but this was my attempt...so much more to say, if you would like to know more...

A walk, a meal, a cup of coffee, or any number of things that would allow us to see if there is a connection...a successful first date would be one that we would not want to end.
