I grew up in llinois and went to Southern Illinois Univ. Carbondale and left for Los Angeles in 1993. Two months ago I moved back and am excited to start over and to meet new people here in St. Louis. I went to Italy for a couple weeks in May and am completely obsessed with anything and everything Italian! I am planning to take a trip back to Sorrento-my favorite. I would like to meet someone who would like to explore St. Louis and the surrounding areas with me. I am very easy going, adventurous, I have a good sense of humor and a positive outlook on life. I like to have fun! P.S. I am not a huge fan of emailing and if we both feel it is appropriate, then I would just like to meet and say hello. Email is very deceptive and I really believe you only know if there is a connection if you meet in person. So, if you are on this site just to email someone and never intend to meet, then I'm not the one to email!! :)

These are some things I would like to do: wine tasting, nice dinners (The Hill), horseback riding, plays, movies, champagne brunch, jazz concerts, world music, poetry readings, film festivals, art fairs, salsa and swing dancing, museums, hiking, camping, explore the caves in Missouri, happy hour, meet for coffee, brewery tour, see a modern dance performance or a ballet...I'm just brainstorming, but I think these are some great date ideas!
