I'm a digital nomad (for lack of a better term) with a transient, minimalist lifestyle. I'm not opposed to settling down somewhere for the right person if visa runs are viable; I did this in Taiwan for years.
I've been self-employed since the age of 20 and have lived abroad since 2016. Originally from the USA, though I have no intention to live there again. To stay active, I particularly enjoy cycling and exploring on foot, as well as occasional hiking. At home I'm content with films/series, reading, and gaming. When I'm in a new city, I always like to check out the museums/galleries, parks, and botanic garden (if there is one), usually with camera in hand. I used to sell photos for a living, and photography remains a leisure hobby.
I enjoy my independence, although I must admit, ever since I was young I daydreamed of traveling with a partner. That remains my desire, but it seems most people's conception of "travel" is what they see on social media.

In theory, I practice presence / mindfulness and try to avoid speaking through ego. In reality, I'm outwardly a normal human being, totally not perfect, and I have my unconscious moments, too.
It would be great to find someone who shares a similar desire to be more conscious and is willing to both give and take helpful reminders when we start to slip up. Finding someone truly interested in this has been rather difficult for me. It is something I have had a hard time finding through traditional dating sites, so hoping to have better luck here.
I'm conscious of my physical desire for a partner and I'm following it with as much awareness as I can. I want to try to provide you with the masculinity that you desire from my side of a partnership while I keep from slipping into unconsciously identifying as a "side."
Some hobbies: backpacking, fermenting, movies, music, making smoothies and kale chips, day hikes, running, board/video games, and math/physics. I have a ton of appreciation of film, classical music, game design, and animation. I also really enjoy books, audiobooks, graphic novels and live performances. My creative outlets are through photography, video game development, philosophy, and, during the pandemic, I began experimenting with electronica. I'd love to meet someone with a couple similar interests, yet allowing space to pursue our own interests where they differ.
I'm not into labels, but my personality type was most recently INFP-A (MBTI), 5w4 (enneagram). Love-language was "physical touch" followed closely by "quality time."
I really like road trips, nature preserves, national parks, and occasional travel. Right now I'm a bit of a homebody, but I absolutely crave occasional social interaction. Usually, I much prefer to stay in and cook meals and watch a movie / Netflix / play something (alone or together) rather than go out to dinner, but I enjoy going to the movies, classical music, opera, and other live performances.
During the pandemic, I ran at least 10k every single day to avoid lockdown boredom in the steep Santa Cruz Mountains. Although I've reduced that due to repetitive injury, I care a lot about my health and hope you care about your health, too! I prefer to use natural healing for physical/mental health -- holistic medicine, diet, exercise, supplements, and meditation/present-mindedness to ease stress. I'm not on board with some pharmaceuticals used in conventional medicine that only treat symptoms!

I love writing, biking, walking, hiking, doing Taichi, preparing a nutritious meal, gardening, sewing, and observing nature. I try to live with mindfulness. I like to live a simple, yet meaningful life. I would like to develop my fullest potential in this lifetime and be able to contribute to the world ...
I wrote the following article on September 10, 2025, at 12:22 PM
>>> Your emotions determine your happiness, and
Your happiness determines your life.
Since my best friend, Dougald, left this world on July 28th this year,
My sadness hasn't diminished even a single day.
But the times of sadness have gradually decreased.
Most of us have feelings.
When we're sad, we don't need to resist it,
But rather understand why we're sad.
This experience of losing a dear friend
Has made me feel immense regret for his short life!
Because he was such a kind person!
Many say that for every effect, there's a cause.
Perhaps his early passing was due to this causal relationship.
I understand very well how the law of attraction works.
When you're happy,
The vibration you emit attracts things related to happiness.
When you're sad, you attract similar things that make you sad.
When you're angry, you attract similar things that make you angry.
... and so on.
So, to have a fulfilling life, the vibration you emit is crucial!
You can be sad, but don't let it persist for too long.
Learn how to transform sadness into strength.
When you're feeling down, realize that
Most people don't know how to control their emotions.
If you could handle it with a relaxed attitude, they wouldn't affect you.
Impermanence is a normal part of life; there's no need to lament it.
The important thing is to accept impermanence and strive to do what you love.
It will make you want to live a more meaningful, fulfilling, and joyful life!

Happy, whole, open-minded, heart-based, hippie-ish, affectionate, self-confident, slightly kinky guy with lots of love to share. Very easy-going, non-judgmental American transplant to Ireland (dual citizenship), so I will always be an outsider/blow-in.
A kind-hearted and very liberal free-spirit, I find great beauty in life and also laugh a lot! A rich and fulfilling sex life is important to me as a way of communication and connection. I like to touch and be touched by those I love.
Currently living a rather low-key, rural life in a beautiful location, alone in a big house with one feline who chooses to be with me.
Reach out and say hello!

I have been a vegetarian for several years. I love outdoor activities especially during the summer such as hiking and swimming. Traveling is also one of my interests. I have traveled to South America, Mexico, Germany, Italy, Austria, Switzerland, Lichtenstein and Turks and Caicos. I also enjoy seeing movies, reading books, going to concerts and going to museums.
With a bachelor's degree in biological sciences, I worked at first as a lab technician in an environmental lab. Eventually, I received my nursing degree and now work at a local teaching hospital.
I am very family oriented. I try to respect and get along with my parents.

Over the past few years I've been focusing on energy and breathing using imagry, crystals, Tai Chi, Feng Shui, Tapping and EMDR therapy. I've also discovered don Miguel Ruiz, a writer who has enabled me to gain wisdom and peace. He has written many books, including The Four Agreements, The Mastery of Love, and many others. I like to commune with nature often taking walks in the neighborhood and at nature parks.
No chump supprters. There are many efforts around the world to remove this dictator.

I spend a lot of time outdoors. I kayak, hike, bike, birdwatch, and love meeting all my wild neighbors. The year before Covid I also started taking surfing lessons.
I write and advocate for causes I care about and have had some successes. The circus no longer comes to my town, there's a beautiful preserved forest that does NOT have a cell phone tower, there's a large city park where ALL smoking is banned.....
My favorite issues are environmental, animal rights, and those concerning poverty and human rights. I think in another life I must have been a peasant in a peasant uprising.
This might seem odd but for fun I collect trash. My kayak often looks more like a garbage scow as I gather plastics and other trash while kayaking on the river and at the beach. I mostly just find trash but I've found some interesting stuff too, including something the bomb squad had to blow up on the spot. I'm still waiting to find either a briefcase full of half a million dollars of drug money no one claims or a chest of pirate's treasure sticking half out of a sandbar.
I love gardening... for wildlife, for food, for beauty, organically, and with native plants.
I enjoy a variety of things and am always eager to learn new ones. I'm open to suggestions.....
I admire Thoreau, Gandhi, Paul Watson, Ric O'Barry, johnpaulgeorge&ringo, Zonker P. Harris, Jeremy Hilary Boob Phd.......

A minimalist at heart, caring, happy, playful, honest, reliable, mature, understanding, considerate, more introverted, health oriented, into reading, nature, somewhere between an INFJ and an INTJ, a bit ocd, enjoy quiet peaceful environments as well as more exciting adventures with music and friends, inwardly spiritual, prefer to be toxin free both physically and mentally, value freedom, seeking truth, red pilled, naturally aware, have done a lot of inner work over the years and actively try to cultivate self-awareness, into raw foods nutrition, juicing, desire to be off grid, traveling, and going on outdoor adventures.
I had a goal of building / buying some sort of minimalist / off grid homebase in Alaska, but in so many ways it conflicts with my diet. I may still do this with the intention of only being there part time. Otherwise, I would like to be in a place where fruits are fresh and abundant.
I've spent a lot of time studying natural nutrition and eventually want to create an online program where I could help others with their health. Right now, I have an online course business that I plan to launch in February or March 2026.
I also tend to keep up with what is going on in the world and more often than not stay away from mainstream media because I see a lot of deception in our world today. I didn't take the thing in 2020 and avoid health care centers and hospitals like the plague.
I have a passion for eating raw fruits and vegetables, being aware of what I put into my body both physically and mentally, taking care of my health, being outside in vast areas of nature, learning more about myself and understanding the world as a whole, spending time with friends, and finding community among others.
I'm also chemically sensitive and must avoid scented laundry detergents, perfumes, commercial body cleansing products and need to be with someone who can do the same.

I am fun loving, live in the moment, really nice guy who has learned to enjoy life. This includes keeping a positive attitude in a relationship with a low demand (low maintenance) yet loving approach. Women often tell me that I am nice to be around for extended periods of time. I am kind, considerate, not demanding, and very loving.
My goal in life is to become closer to God, and to help myself and my loved one's be the best-version-of-themselves as we all can be. This is how I define a supportive relationship. In a kind yet disciplined way help support each other physically, emotionally, intellectually, and spiritually to be the best version of ourselves (and our Selves).

Childfree, eternal optimist and vegan (for ethical reasons). Like to tread softly and leave the world in a better place. Physically, I am 6’2 and athletic. Emotionally, I espouse a lot of the Stoic / Buddhist philosophies into my daily life - i.e. being an observer, staying calm under all situations, and focusing my energies on what I can control.
Having grown up in different countries, I speak several languages. I am very outdoorsy, fit and healthy. Work in tech, and been remote since 2014. Currently based in Atlanta.
I get along well with women who are intelligent, physically active, kind and affectionate. While physical attraction has its place, I place a greater emphasis on shared values and 'meeting of like minds'.
I am NOT into: too much processed food, smoking (of any kind), drugs, FWBs/casual relationships/ENM, a partying lifestyle (too old for it haha)
I am very much into: long-term thinking, immersive travel, FIRE, minimalism, healthy living (mental & physical), women empowerment (especially outside the US), blowing my budget at Costco, and overanalyzing every review on Amazon
I am very happy with and grateful for my current life. But open to a LTR with someone that will challenge, support and inspire me. I am more than keen on doing the same for her.
If what you have read so far sounds interesting, lets chat.
