It is always fun to meet the occassional new person, broaden one's horizons, act outside the box etc. Reviewing summer, I went to many ole favaourite lakes, Durance and Cameron, several times, and I made it to one new, to me, lake - Spectacle Lake. I went camping five times between May and August, and aim to camp more next summer. Cycling is something I really enjoy, and is so much more fun to do with at least one other person, and I got to cycle with my kid a fair bit this past spring and summer. I have a very nice Italian custom-made road bike I brought back from Italy. I also spent three years in Japan. I like planning, and am pretty organized, and my two career paths (education and mental health and addictions) are slowly coming to harmonize in a very meaningful way for me. Apparently compatible with Libra, Aquarius, Gemini, Capricorn, late Cancer and late Virgo if you are interested in the Astrology take. Monkeys like me are known to play well with rats and dragons too. I am the oldest child and am most compatible with the youngest or the only child. Since doing triathlons in Japan, and biking long in Italy, I now work on being satisfied with the lesser amount of exercise freedom I have since my awesome kid was born in ***single mom by choice). When my kid is in his Karate class, I am watching from a stationary bike or a yoga mat. When my kid is in his swimming lessons, I savour vigorous laps for the precious 30 minutes. When my kid is in his tennis lesson, I yoga. I teach yoga, as a sub, whenever I can too. I have my kid full-time, and am just starting to see glimpses of the potential to get more exercise - perhaps I will be doing triathlons with my son one day. So my favourite thing to do with a new person would be to exercise together, even if just at conversation pace. I have also started mindful meditation practice, with a group, this winter too. What makes me unique....I don't have tattoos and I don't want any. I don't drink coffee regularity, but if I do drink coffee, it has to be a decaf. Having a very keen sense of smell, coffee and garlic breath bother me. I have a bit of a Tomboy personality, but I do not swear, use derogatory humour, or assumptions, aimed at anybody. I succeed at some minor house hold improvements, such as putting up my own curtain rods or waterproofing my own pic-nic table. I would like to make my own shoe rack/tower one day. I do like being womanly, and take some pride in my appearance without feeling I need make-up- hey at least it is not going to get any worse. I am not the "princess" type, yet do not mind a door being opened for me or a tea being bought for me. I am usually pretty open-minded. I am told I have a great sense of humour and I really like it when I can make people laugh and smile. I aim to improve myself in various ways. Be the improvement in my diet (already no pork, beef, heavy carbs, white death (white sugar) or regular dairy consumption), parenting, social interactions, furniture arrangement, manners, personal hygiene or facial tics; I am always looking to improve myself ;) I like cooking. I am frequently told by my kid and my friends that I am a good cook. I like making Japanese food sometimes, like miso soup. I also make my own homemade granola bars with coconut oil *** butter, and homemade museli with my own roasted pecans. Now that it is colder, I make soup from my own stock. I am detail-oriented, and I value communication. I'm an occasional Walmart and Costco shopper (so why don't you shoot me baby!), yet am highly considering going vegan. Very occasional drinker. I don't like to socialize at bars. I aim for balance in diet, lifestyle, and on the yoga mat ;)I value friendship. I am not against getting into a sexual relationship, but it is definitely not the be all, end all for me - yet by no means am I asexual (interesting documentary titled by the very word, by the way). Most of my relationships start with friendship, and end with sometimes an even better friendship. My intention here is to make another friend, possibly more over time. I am not into internet chatting. Just *** enough, and what I aim for is less time in front of sceens. I do like to talk on the phone though, see if we get along voice to voice before stepping it up to face to face. ***, word processing and work related computer time is more than enough screen time. Yoga music is nice, like Shastro and Down City Dwellers. I used to think the best music is that that you can dance to, but over the years I have come to appreciate the mellower melodies as well. I pretty much enjoy most kinds of music except for rap and some country. Most of my listening when I need to drive (I prefer to cycle when distance and weather permit) is to CBC radio. My kid loves the Zucchero CD I brought back from Italy. I stay away from big concerts with big crowds that are really loud. I've volunteered at Bluegrass Music festivals a lot, and enjoy the Bluegrass Festival atmosphere. I will not respond to those with no pictures, near naked pictures, all distant pictures, or pictures with big sunglasses on.Meeting somebody is not a date to me - much too strong of a word. I would call it "meeting," and we can figure it out together...It is nice to check out each others voices over the phone before meeting. Guaranteed if we don't like each others voices, we will not like each other in person either.

Hi, I like to have fun, I enjoy going out but also enjoy staying home. Cooking, cuddling, sharing a bottle of wine or a beer. Animals, gardening, family, friends and music are important to me.I love music, all types but mostly country. Old rock n roll is still a favorite, even some blues on occassion. I love classic cars, I would be a "Jay Leno" if the financial means would allow. The more, the merrier!.I like to boat, ride horses, attend concerts and fairs.I'm open to trying new things, ever go clam digging? I'm abit more of a country girl, but like the city life for all that it has to offer. I have adjusted to being single but miss having a significant other. I'm having the time of my life and do lots of activities with numerous friends. I like to dress up for an evening out, or be casual with blue jeans and boots . Very versatile. Communication is key, not always easy, but without it, you can't grow as a couple and have the closeness that we all desire. Yep, looking for a best friend. Drop me a line, would love to hear from you. Looking for a Christian man!!Last, but not least. I'm NOT looking for an *** or husband, or sexual encounter. But rather, that rare connection of important chemistry and attraction. I'm looking to meet after some ***, so as to get to know you, then phone conversation, and then a meetup. It's friends first. We may not have the same interest, which can be ok. I'm looking for someone willing to share and try new things, and I will likewise. We are individuals. I have a nice life already,looking to enhance it with a nice man. I wear a smile and a happy heart, how about you? :)For a first meeting, coffee and conversation, or a drink at a place on the river (love the river).

I have the luxury of being retired. I've been travelling and volunteering In Asia since ***. Just returned from India . Looking forward to reconnecting with friends and making new ones. I love just being by the the ocean and/or the mountains. Hiked in the Hymalayas in November ***. When in Victoria, I enjoy long walks, bike rides.stopping on a beach to read a book or at a neighbourhood coffee shop to read the newspaper. I love great coffee and red wine. I like all kinds of music. If you and I have similar interests, or if you would like to introduce a new one to me, by all means message me. If I add you as a favorite and/or send a "flirt" it means that I am interested in meeting you (based on your profile) and I hope that you will make the first move by sending me a message; I am old fashioned that way.Let's decide together when the time comes.
