I am a petite fit woman with long dark hair and eyes. I have made a career in the high tech industry and am actually takng advantage of the slow down for the first time in my life. I snowboard in winter, snorkel in summer, garden in spring and revel in the fall. I cook throughout it all. I am passionate about sailing but love to put my toes on the sand. I like to swim in warm salt water and drink wine in vineyards. I am intense but most at home when I can be mellow. I light candles when I start a meal as a ritual of appreciation of the air, water, earth and fire. I am best with a partner but fiercely independent. If you can show me how to depend on someone yet give me my space I will do the same for you. I want someone to want to wait for. I want someone to want to wait for me. I will travel to italy for truffels, the south of france for the lifestyle, the seirra for the snow, hawaii for the saltwater, and the carribean for the sailing. Come with me. Come take me with you. Just come and try me.

I like to meet for coffee or a drink, maybe dinner if we want to linger. A place like Peets or a cafe in the city or on the ocean. A late lunch with a glass of wine. The second or third date is usually much more fun.
