Date a soulmate from Salt Spring Island, Canada. I was born with salt water in my veins....my parents couldn't get me and my fleet out of the tub. I spent my youth haunting the boatyards of New England to hitch rides on sail and fishing boats and to sweep up bottom paint chips and sawdust for a dollar a day. I thrive on sailboats. I have had a captain's license for over 40 years and have at least 150,000 sea miles, probably more. I am a complex, highly intelligent, and slightly nerdy person; and while sailing and boat building are my life's passion, I have also been involved in the theater, the graphic arts---a wilderness paramedic, 15 years a pro ski patroller and many, many years a massage therapist to high level athletes. Didn't sleep much......
I live outdoors and sleep with all the windows open. Recently moved here, I could spend a lifetime exploring the BC coast and interior in all seasons---no bad weather just bad clothing.
I am ready to dance as soon as the music is turned up, especially liking calypso and merengue--willing to try more formalized dancing such as tango or West Coast swing. I play the hand drums--bongo, conga, djembe--for personal pleasure and sometimes with friends. I get physical exercise every day and work out some, much more in the winter. I am definitely not into running. I bake a loaf of bread every week and try to eat seafood every other day with a glass or two of wine. I am used to living in cramped quarters with other people for long periods of time(sometimes too long). My home base, hopefully with a hot tub, has to be spacious to contain my many interests, projects, and guests. I have not had a lot of opportunity in my life for gardening---no deer fence here. I do miss warmer water for swimming and snorkeling in the sea.
I think that I am sort of handsome in a balding sort of way. Athletic and toned, about average, a few extra pounds all in the same package---hey! that's what you get at 63. I am very inquisitive and tend to be coarsely intellectual, I'm a sailor. While I enjoy deep, penetrating, searching and philosophical conversation......silliness, laughter, and fooling around is where it's at. I try to meditate every day; it's good for my soul.
I am looking for an outdoors gal who is or wants to be a hard core sailor and cruiser. An interest in skiing and/or hiking/camping is a definite plus. In her pack one might find a brainy(or not) book, an Ipod with a diverse range of music, maybe a board game. A self-reliant person who is not afraid to be beyond the bounds of a call for immediate assistance. One who wants to explore the near borders of the extreme without being extreme. One who likes to meander through art galleries and museums unhurriedly....and on the trail too. I am a caring, honest, and very dependable person and hope that she would be too. A woman who wants to build a good great intimacy based on experience, thoughtful exchange, and general mutual open hearted comfort and laughter. A lady who desires a lot of physical contact and attention, willing to give as well as receive and receive as well as give and who enjoys her own femininity and my masculinity ....and a dancer

Meet men and women from Salt Spring Island, Canada. This,
The human condition is that we are individuals in relationship, and there are tensions between individuality and relatedness. A humanist spirituality is not one of complete dependence, nor of complete independence -- neither condition can be defended as primary. Rather, a humanist spirituality is one of interdependence.
and,
There is an energy field between humans. And, when we reach out in passion, it is met with an answering passion and changes the relationship forever.
Date a man from Canada. I am recently divorced and therefore not looking for a long term relationship right away. I am interested in friendship and companionship and more if that is appropriate. I am a one woman man. Any relationship I was in I would hope would be an honest and open one. I am interested in a woman who does not need a man but rather wants to have a friendship with a man that is genuine and honest. A woman who is independent and has her own interests and is OK on her own, with or without a man. I feel I am OK with or without a woman. I have my own interests and I would hope she would have hers that might be different from mine. Some interests we would have together and would spend time together doing things that interested us both. Social dancing, or contra dancing is an interest of mine that I would hope she could share.

Meet people from British Columbia, Canada. I am a romantic...I believe in love...looking for my best friend. Looking for someone that is healthy emotionally, mentally and physically. Enjoys to laugh, likes to be spontaneous, has courage, is honorable... one damn fine prince is what I'm looking for.
