I like photography and scuba diving a lot. I did my undergrad studies with emphasis on oceanography so love to travel and explore underwater. My favorite city is Vancouver,BC, Canada because of it's cosmopolitan feel, great music and wonderful people. My property has a well so I am very big on gardening with lots of vegetables as well as fruit trees. I try to eat well and exercise and luckily have a big pool for swimming laps. I have 2 great dogs who really live the good life with plenty of space to roam and lots of walks around the neighborhood. I love rock and roll, blues and classical music but my favorite now is jazz with Miles Davis my hero. I read a lot and try to keep up on what's happening in the world and why. I want to continue living a life that is mostly stress-free with a good balance of fun with friends and caring for those less fortunate.

For a first date I would definitely try to find out what my date likes and would like to do. I would be content to sit somewhere and talk or go out and have a wild time. I love dining out and having good conversation, but I also like Arizona basketball, dancing and parties at friends houses.
