My description:
Hi! Thank you for reading my profile. I’m vegan for ethical reasons, and I'm trying to eat mostly raw, but not easy. I'm very health conscious and do my best not to eat or drink any junk foods or beverages (no sodas, no coffee, etc.). I'm very passionate about all animals (all sentient beings, actually) and how we humans treat them (or mistreat them in many cases). If I could I would do nothing but help animals live a long, happy life full of love and human compassion. I've rescued several abused dogs (6) and cats (13) and found them homes; I wish I could do more for others. I have 1 dog (Lab) and 2 cats, who love each other.
I'm very romantic, affectionate, considerate, kind, sweet, loving, honest, funny, chivalrous, passionate, compassionate, energetic, intelligent, spiritual, faithful, spontaneous, and open-minded. I have a great sense of humor a love to laugh. I love 70s/80s, Disco and Latin music; dancing is a huge passion. I usually exercise almost every day (need to lose weight!), although some weeks it’s very hard to find the time (jogging, weight lifting, martial arts, racquetball, yoga); lately I've been doing 3 to 5 miles almost every day, very slowly. I love a good long hike. However, I’m still overweight (genes!), and would love to workout with my partner. I meditate daily (I try to meditate for at least an hour, but sometimes I don't have the time). I concentrate on Zen meditation. I'm a pretty good cook and love cooking and experimenting. I make delicious meals (cooked or not) and usually don't write the recipes down so I have a hard time reproducing them (would you help me organize this?). I love writing. I've been writing poetry since I was 15, published 2 poetry books (spiritual, romantic); working on third one.
I'm an avid reader of spiritual books. I don’t watch TV; there's so much else to do in a beautiful day! I do love a good movie. I prefer romantic movies and comedies, or a good drama with no special effects. I enjoy playing chess. I'm usually reading several books at once, on various themes: poetry, enlightenment, higher levels of consciousness, life after death, spiritual development, near death experiences, Buddhism, comparative religion (even though I’m not religious at all), eastern philosophies, etc. Although I'm not a Buddhist, I do study (and used to teach) Zen philosophies. As far as politics, I'm very liberal and very democrat; statistically, I think I just scared away about 44% of the ladies reading my profile.. :-(
I love the arts: going to museums, ballet, opera, Broadway plays, the symphony, live music of all types, etc. I go crazy for a good piano recital, as much as for a good oldies discotheque ;-). I love going to the beach, any time of year, even if I can't swim; would you teach me? I grew up 3 blocks from the ocean and still crave it. I enjoy going to nude beaches, and I hope you wouldn't mind going together - this is important to me. You see, I just don't have taboos about nudity, like most Americans do, because I grew up in a different culture (and now I probably just scared away about 90% of the remaining readers of my profile... ;-). I have 3 young adult children who mean the world to me. I grew up speaking Spanish and I love languages in general. I would like to continue learning French, German, Italian, Portuguese and Quechua (the Inca language).
I came to the US at 19, from Peru, on a full international scholarship to study piano and mathematics. I used to play classical piano, and hoped to become a concert pianist, until reality hit me. I really love classical music. I also love to play the accordion and the drums. I traveled extensively for over 20 years as an independent computer consultant. I'm a Computer Scientist (PhD). I'm also a professional martial artist. I used to own a martial arts academy, taught Kung-Fu, Tai-chi, Kickboxing, Meditation, Yoga, Eastern Philosophy. I believe compassion and love are the keys to solving the world's problems, besides a healthy dose of humility and no ego in the way. I really think that laughter is the key to having fun and feeling young, besides lots of exercise. BTW, I recycle everything I can. It's not unusual for me to carry back home in my backpack plastics or paper items I used or purchased while I was out so that I can recycle them properly. Mother Earth needs a hand.
Seeking:
She's vegan or vegetarian on her way to veganism. She's not a religious woman (or at least religion is not a big part of her life). She has a beautiful soul, great smile, & self-confidence. She's happy, affectionate, not embarrassed to show her affection in public; keeps herself in good physical shape and is not afraid of a good workout. She's spiritually aware of herself, open-minded, liberal, accepting of those who are different; has a big heart to help the less fortunate and a smile to melt my heart. She will love me even while I'm losing weight. She knows how to be flirty, feminine and sexy (and loves it) and is comfortable in jeans as well as in a little black dress, short skirts, high heels, or a bikini. She wears her hair long (just a preference), or is willing to let it grow long. Sorry but I just don't see why ladies after a certain age tend to cut their hair short (at least in this culture, not in Latin America)... I just don't like it short.
Looking for my best friend first, letting our chemistry take its course with no rush. She loves to laugh and sees that everything in our lives has a purpose and a lesson, that the divine also lives within each and every one of us, and that we're all interconnected. She sees the beauty in everyone else. She's funny and she really loves to dance. She enjoys a long walk or jogging by a nature trail. If this is you (or close to it), and you have a picture posted here, drop me a few lines; maybe I'll write you a poem... Did I say I love to dance? :-)
