Joel here, I enjoy everyday.........sunshine.........a great hike in the woods......a good read.......a riveting TV program......smiling, opening the door for strangers.....life is good. I also enjoy socializing and meeting new people. My story has been an interesting endeavor full of curves, peaks and valleys. I have learned, lived, experienced and I am just getting started. Looking forward to making travel a priority as well as keeping a full life balance. I am blessed with many friends and professional colleagues. Very few items are missing in my life, I warmly welcome whatever destiny has in store for me. Other fascinations include the financial markets, other cultures, anthropology, the dynamics of politics, economics, history and just a darn good sense of humor! I'm looking for the one who will be my best friend and partner in crime! Someone who can read my mind and understands the look in my eyes better than I can express myself with words!

Not into the impersonal job interview type of date. Enjoy good conversation and getting to know the person in front of me as who they are, not who I would like them to be. Looks are nice but what's most important is that you are a good person and treat others with kindness. I am an avid listener and it is fascinating to me to learn more about others. I am also as sincere and foward as they come when I am asked about myself. I too put forward the person I am not the person whom someone may expect me to be. Above all fun, coziness & respect are key. The world is a nice place to be, I am a believer that most people are good and well intentioned and it is my ideal that these principles come across in my demeanor in an affable way. I have been told I am very polite and I like to smile. I hope that sums it up... Cheers :)
