I love life and the challenges each day brings. People close to me say that I am energetic, empathetic, and compassionate. I have recently moved into the work to live phase of my life and find it quite enjoyable. Music drives my life and inspires my day. Listening to Nicola Conti or King Brit can elevate my state to a completely different level. I love to travel to new places to experience different cultures and world views. So far, I've coverd most of Western Europe and North America. My hope is touch each continent at least once before I leave this earth. While I love to travel and savor every opportunity for adventure, I am also a traditionalist when it comes to family. To me, being a parent is the most important work we can ever do. I look forward to the responsibility, the challenge and joy it will bring. I am most intrigued by those open to new perspectives and cosmologies. I choose to associate with people who differ from me both in world view and background but share a common desire to live life to the fullest. I like to learn in all aspects of my life. From work to personal relationships, I seek experiences that promote learning and growth. I love good food, great wine, films of all origins, music, and meeting new people. Life is about learning. Once we cease to grow, we cease to be. The person I seek is confident, honest, passionate, caring, ambitious, family centric, open to different perspectives, has a strong sense or right and wrong and emotionally ready to pursue a relationship with the right person. She is just as comfortable at a wine tasting as he is at the local hole in the wall diner. She must be open to new experiences and ideas. Are you up to the challenge?
