In Her Own Words
About her
I'm a very funny person. I will make you laugh. I'm a great person. In my free time, I kayak, paint, do nature photography, and cook. Love cooking for family and friends. I will be retiring soon (August 2023), and looking for a travel companion to go on adventures. I'm comfortable traveling alone, but would prefer to share adventures with someone.
Oh, and I love coffee and coffee drinks (cappuccino). I have my own espresso/cappuccino machine, and am even working on a book about coffee. So I love, love, love coffee. Well, maybe that is overstating it a bit. But you get the picture. Would be good, if my match drank coffee. But not a requirement.
About her ideal match
Someone who like to explore, and learn about new cultures. Is not set in his ways, and can roll with the unexpected things that can sometimes go wrong (like weather, etc). while traveling. Instead of letting it ruin their day.
Don't like people who complain a lot. If you can't drive without constantly complaining how all the other people on the road can't drive. Then click past my profile. I don't want to know you. I dated that person once. The person who is right and everyone else is wrong. I want people who loves themselves. Is not trying to change the woman in their life, and can appreciate me for me. I'm not changing for anyone. I love myself, and it took me a long time to develop my personality. I'm not looking for a man to pay for anything for me. Just have your own money to keep up with me in my travel adventures to: Portugal, Peru, New Zealand, back to Italy and where ever else I (or you) think to go to.
I'm also planning a 5 week trip to Thailand, but plan on doing that trip by myself. I want it to peaceful and solitude. No complainers.
Basically, if you are a positive person, and expect good things to happen, instead of always looking for the bad. Then, you are a potential person, I might want to meet. If you are negative and just OD on negative news, love complaining about politics, and just miserable in general. Then, please find another miserable person to spend time with. I'm not for you, and I am not trying to fix anyone or make them better. No more fixer-up people projects. Just looking forward to enjoying the rest of my life and chilling on a beach somewhere with or without an umbrella drink. Since I'm a Buddhist now, I'm not supposed to drink. But I say if I'm out of the country and I'm at a winery. I'm not perfect, I'm still a work in progress.
Prefer someone who does NOT smoke.
Prefer someone who doesn't drink all day long.
Prefer someone who may have even considered (or has) lived outside of the US.
