I love to read and learn. Books on science, history and the English language populate my shelves, but there is plenty of fiction too! SF/F, mysteries and the Victorian authors are among my favorites.
I do much of my cooking from scratch. I find that it is cheaper, tastier and better for me.
I enjoy sewing, embroidery and crochet.
Physical fitness is an important part of my life. I go to the gym regularly and love to go hiking.
I live with one companion cat and he is my dearest friend.
Politically, I am very liberal or progressive or whatever it is called now.

I am looking forward to enjoying an amazing connection.My ideal world would include enjoying a simple life of great food, great vistas, great relationships, great health; tons of peace, love, and joy - all shared my someone with whom I connect just so, so amazingly well...Describing my ideal day(s) might provide a picture of some of my priorities, values, desires, etc. Here we go:
After waking up, I go for a run to start the day followed by some exercise, then a bike ride. Then, after a great round of juicing, I head out to play a round of golf amongst the beautiful vistas of mountains and water. Then, I go downhill skiing on the mountain next to the golf course - love the speed and serenity plus the vistas from the top of the mountain. After skiing, then after getting cleaned up, I deliver a seminar and/or help some clients. On other days, some gaps might be filled with hiking, sight-seeing, home projects, writing, etc. When I get home, I pick some fresh veggies from the garden and some fruit from trees - all adjacent to the house. With that, I would make an amazing, filling, delicious, nutritious meal.I also love to do absolutely nothing on days like it is right now (as I write this, it's raining pretty hard outside). Cozy, quiet, intimate, serene, calming, and quite often magical! :)Periodically, I would spend time with my kids (20, 18) - when their schedule permits. LOLIdeally, I would do it all with her. Ideally. I love the vision of quality time with my sweetheart. Love it. Ideally, she and I enjoy an ever-so-rare connection that it almost hurts to be a part. We[re a team, a unit, a real partnership. That's a brief introduction. :)BTW, I love to learn about so many different things. It's fair to say that life is lived in phases - part of the phase I have been in for the last 4-6 years has had me learning about so many different topics/areas. Perhaps, we can learn some things together? I would love that. As a frame of reference, I probably spend 2-4 hours per day learning "something", now. Join me!? :)

I am a researcher (PhD) in engineering and over the years have realized the fine details of how the human body works. Although an engineer I am equally interested in biology and human psychology. Most of the time I wander researching on topics that interest me instead of focusing on my work. Recently I have developed keen into stock market analysis and effective ways to investing $$$.Outside of work I enjoy playing squash, chess, badminton, ping-pong. Last year I have also learnt how to swim and bought myself a ukulele. When time permits I like to go for a hike. I also do freelance photography and love going for long drives.I like tasting all kinds of plant-based foods; I am also very good at checking food labels and looking up for pros and cons of each ingredient on our health. At home I like to cook my meals everyday because I like to eat fresh cooked food.I also practice yoga and meditation everyday for which I like to get up very early. I believe in a disciplined lifestyle and motivating others.

People tell me I am fun and try to be funny! If you can figure out that first sentence, you are smarter than I am! I am not an extrovert but am socially very able; an ambivert!I am 64 years YOUNG and fit without being a total gym rat. Former pro athlete and coach turned entrepeneur. So ... totally supportive of sports and fitness activities, although if you are not much into that ... a general desire to keep fit and healthy would be important.Yes, I look and act only 44 but have the maturity gained from those extra years. Healthy and vibrant, the "child" is alive in my heart ... in a good way! I smile and laugh easily.Business owner cutting back on work to pursue other non-business passions including being a musician, writer, and travel. Am a kind, considerate, honest, reliable, and romantic Libra! :)First time on site like this. Divorced last year after long time married. Oh ... in case interested, am also a long-time vegetarian (40 years). And, yes, I like to cook!Besides through travel, I am very committed to exploring life through growth and learning (artistically and spiritually). Have done retreats in India and traveled extensively.One child. She is 25 and doing GREAT!!!What am I looking for? Long term relationship. Not a "hit and run" sorta guy. Spiritually very curious about all paths to the truth. Open minded and respectful of all cultures (peaceful ones! lol).I am affectionate and dependably thoughtful. Multilingual with English, Spanish, and German if it matters. :)))Fun? If you laugh at my jokes, I will keep you laughing regularly! lol. The "kid" in me is still alive and well. :)

Well,well
to begin with, I love nature and animals, but I am not an environmental extremist. However, I try to recycle and reduce. I have 4 cats ( (a registered cattery).As I have lived in France for while (doing my Ms) so I am used to and I do enjoy good wine, sophisticated food, live music and great chat. Having quality fun, some dancing :)I feel very comfortable being in the nature, I don't really watch TV. I travel a lot, for instance, I was in Himalayas in 2015 that enabled me to see the areas after 2015 earthquake (not popular tourist routes).I don't go often on veggieconnection, please, send me a real message, no e-cards.

Evolving, non-dogmatic, questioning, and sometimes spontaneous. Like: hiking, beach, mountains, tennis, vintage and race cars, self defense and dancing, and of course art/architecture. Continually evolving vegan diet. Self employed, and independent. Like to take a drive across this country and back once in awhile, sometimes camping along the way. The question mark under "income" is not meant to insult you. I know my income. I also know it has created unnecessary misunderstandings in the past. Ask me if you must know.

On a typical Friday night, I enjoy meeting friends for happy hour usually followed by being in bed by 11PM. I enjoy anything with vegan basil pesto, fresh fruit smoothies, and spaghetti squash (let's face it. The fact that I can put a whole football-sized squash in the oven & get spaghetti noodles is amazing!). I think about how crazy it is that my children will never experience going to Blockbuster on a Friday night, how I can positively influence people, and how this great big universe works.

I've been divorced now for almost 13 years. Have had a couple relationships after that but have not found the right guy for me yet. I came to this site thinking maybe if I go to a place where people think a little more like I do I won't keep running into the same issues. I don't like bars much and I don't seem to meet any single guys anymore. Especially not vegan or vegetarian guys, if you're also progressive or liberal that would almost be too much to ask for but hey... Worth a shot.I have one child at home still, half of the time he's with his dad. He's a sophomore in high school. I have a daughter in college and the rest are out of the home. I have one dog, her name is Piper and she's a Rottweiler mix. She's a sweetie.I’m a yoga teacher part-time, yoga is really a way of life for me. I’ve embraced all aspects and strive to learn more and improve everyday. The philosophy, meditation and the asana practice all combine to keep me always striving to grow into a better person, I am totally convinced of this.I also play flute, and that's a big love of my life. For me, music brings joy to life, and actually participating in the creating of music can soothe anything that ails you. It’s really amazing and I am so grateful I began playing at a young age, and that I kept it up my whole life. There’s nothing like it.I am hoping to find someone who realizes that this life is like a wonderful growth experiment. Let’s explore together!

I'm an aspiring movie buff that is looking to improve his cooking and dancing. Anyway, I love exploring my world class city and hope to inspire some of my family to become healthier through my actions. Let's get to know each other!

Thanks for dropping by. If I'm out feel free to leave a message.I spend a lot of time outdoors. I kayak, hike, bike, birdwatch, and love meeting all my wild neighbors.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......."If I had no sense of humor I should long ago have committed suicide." - Gandhi

I work with animals specializing in senior, handicap and special needs animals. They are our teachers. Im also a wildlife rehabber.I enjoy running, experiencing the human-animal bond and exploring metaphysics and the unexplained. I enjoy dreaming about tiny house/minimalist living and self sustainability. All in due time. 😃

I have two great daughters who will be off on their own soon. Here are some things that I like and maybe you will like a few also... stay slim and somewhat healthy but within reason; I am a vegetarian (but you don't have to be); interesting activities; nightlife once in a while with drinks and have a blast, or sit talking; goofy humor & sincerity; dinners in & out; holidays, like Christmas & Halloween; architecture & design; movies; nice dining or pizza & beer; jeans or stylish; the beach & ocean; Cape Cod; Boston; coastal N.E.; just driving around; fashionable, but not overboard.One of the simple things I like to do is have a chai at Starbucks on the weekend. But I love to drive around sometimes and see all of Mass., and in the summer Rhode Island. My daughters and I probably have driven to every part of Mass. just for fun and viewed amazing areas that are right in our "backyard". GPS is the best invention because going off-highway and on the backroads is amazing. You never know what you will find!I stay fit and slim by running for exercise only part of the year, and do yard work. As a vegetarian, I am usually very flexible and find something to eat just about anywhere. If I do watch sports, I like baseball the best (Red Sox, of course). Football is fine at a party. Basketball and hockey is not too bad, either.

Music, art, books, and film are what I care most about.I studied English Lit in college. I am a self-employed carpenter.

Fun, Outgoing, Good listener.

I love family time! My kids are number 1 in my life. We do fun things like weekly family night, hiking, skiing, and time at the lake. They both have activities, so often I'm watching them do their sports. I enjoy my SUP and kayak. I am pretty easy going and love to play... games, outdoors, music, and just hang out together watching movies too. I watch movies often. I enjoy learning new things, like instruments, cooking, and art. I do things for the less fortunate in my community. I crochet hats and scarves to donate to homeless and I help to gather money, food, and clothing donations to our local food & clothing bank.

I love the thrill of traveling and being in a new place and trying new things-I'm usually up for an adventure whether that's skydiving, hiking, a concert, a new vegan restaurant... I am planning on relocating for work sometime this year.I also enjoy discovering new movies/shows and like to watch things that get me thinking-generally dark comedies, crime dramas, and thrillers.

I grew up in the Midwest but have lived on the west coast for almost 20 years. My education is in science and engineering, but I have a strong artistic streak as well, which manifests through cooking, woodworking, and poetry. I am an introvert but I love people. My life centers around helping educate adult learners so they can better their own lives and those of their families. I also enjoy being physically active, through road and trail running, hiking, and cycling.

I'm an emotionally and behaviorally balanced, mature, witty, interesting and curious person. I'm thoughtful and kind and am often moved by people's difficulties. I'm not given to extreme swings of mood. I'm also consistent and try to view other's actions (as best as I can) from their point of view. I also lead a disciplined and moderate lifestyle and am not bored easily. My interests include reading, exercising, walking in cities, travel, coffee shops, cooking, world cinema, classical music
