My description:

Intellectual, nature-lover, contemplative, caring and honest. Active with hiking, running, and eating a very healthy diet, yet I'm a total homebody and prefer to snuggle up with a movie, book, video or board game when I have a choice. Former MMORPG junkie ??. I spent most of my life focusing on my education and work (hasn't everyone?), and turning down social activities because I'm not a fan of small-talk and prefer deep-talk ??. I practice present-mindedness and I try to be aware of internally judging and labeling. I still slip up quite often. Forgiveness is one of the greatest virtues. I've been an engineer at the same Silicon Valley tech company since graduating, and I'm more than willing to get out and move somewhere else, a job change giving me more time with family (my highest priority).

Form answer: - Lifelong Californian, not opposed to moving out-of-state. - Studied computer science (M.S.), with even more love for math & physics. - One sibling, a brother with kids who just moved to Madison, WI. - One pet, a sweet medium-haired calico. - Passions: backpacking, music, classical music concerts, museums, philosophical discussion, healthy vegetarian eating ??, fermenting, video games, board games, movies, dinners in, road-trips, land preservation, photography, developing games, fitness, present-mindedness, camping, reading, personal library curation, VR, MMORPGs, the Olympics, graphic novels, classic films, cats, machine learning, tiny houses & new family envy. - Looking for my life partner and best friend, to share new experiences, interests with and deeply understand one another, even if we are different. I want to be connected at a deep enough level that we're as comfortable with the other person as we are by ourselves. Both want a family and support natural health. - Most weekends I just lounge around at home (in the redwoods), maybe going on a walk and doing some laundry. I make my own meals, do chores and home improvement projects, and then usually watch something when it gets dark on my huge home theatre or play a game. On an ideal weekend, we'd get up early, stop at the farmer's market for fresh cherries on the way to an overnight backpacking trip in the mountains, camp near a remote lake, hike out after a dip, come home, snuggle on the couch with some popcorn while we enjoy the heck out of a movie together. That sounds great to me! - Music: All genres. I'm interested in appreciating art. If I don't like something, I'm willing to learn how to appreciate it. Current favorites are classical music, electronica, techno, video game remixes. Grieg, Copland, Tchaikovsky, M83, Imogen Heap, C418, Blonde Redhead, Silversun Pickups. - Movies & TV. All movies. Classics, musicals. Anime, "guy movies." Romance, drama, and documentaries. Art overwhelms me to tears sometimes ??. I strive to find beauty, so I'll watch anything. Favs: Before Sunset, Brief Encounter, Sunset Boulevard, Princess Mononoke, Ghost in the Shell, Braveheart, tons more. Aggretsuko, The Dark Crystal, I Think You Should Leave. - Night owl. - Mostly raw, whole food diet. - Blue-gray eyes, dark blonde. - INFP, 5w4, pt&qt, but not into static labels!

Seeking:

Searching for partner to love, to share new experiences, avoid ego, and to consciously raise a family together. I've discovered that wanting to have kids & family is an extremely important quality in my partner. Also, alternating between shared time and solitude seems important.
