A student of mystic poetry.and a retired teacher, I currently teach part time. Additionally, I edit books and articles. I love words and languages (wrote and taught a poetry course for elementary school students). Most important in my life are spirituality, meditation, and service (volunteer publicist for several vegfests in the US and UK). Photo is from 2 years ago.

it will bring all the madness you need

I am a retired educator social worker and I am now working part ime as a yoga instructor with a private practice in counseling.
I am seeking like minded people for friendship and soul connection. I have always wanted to have a friend that likes to communicate on deeper levels of life. Communication is a must. I realized that I must connect with not only like minds but also people with similar dietary preferences. I enjoy sharing what is in the deep recesses of my heart. If you are drawn in any way to my profile, please do make contact!

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.

I’m emotionally mature (therapy for 11+ years) and able to communicate about my emotions. Ready for the real deal.
I’m a musician (employed full time, don’t worry 🤓) who’s on the taller side of 5’11” and loves the outdoors, the indoors, great books, and making people laugh.

I do tech. I like spirituality, consciousness, being by the ocean, live music, video games, and good food.
I work from home and like staying somewhere for ~3-6 months. I'd like to find a partner to travel with or relocating for someone serious.
I am 6 foot, with no kids, a nice job (I'm fully remote), and a car.

I'm independent, loyal, fun-loving, affectionate, witty, and love a good laugh. I can tell great stories about my four-legged patients and I look forward to hearing about the animals in your world! (I'm a veterinarian for dogs and cats, and love what I do!)
I can be shy at times but easily adapt to the situations. Enjoyable activities include camping, hiking, tennis, nature walks, and playing classical music. Movies or a night out dancing are fun, but I'm not a big partier. I enjoy different types of music, especially Enya, classic/soft rock, oldies, and instrumental. I like thoughtful discussions on a variety of issues. I don't much care for TV as I find my time better spent doing other things, but I don't mind watching a good documentary or even an occasional chick flick.
I consider myself a lifelong learner. I enjoy talking about issues surrounding animal rights, justice, medicine, & speaking in Spanish is always fun.
Qualities I value: compassion, emotional honesty, integrity & a good sense of humor. I can be either serious or silly. Let's make each other laugh!
Unlike some of my patients, I don't bite! :)

Intelligent, creative, down-to-earth, witty, open-minded (yet having definite opinions), athletic, in shape, honest, faithful, non-materialistic, sensitive, affectionate and sensual are some traits that could describe me. I'm pragmatic, yet also idealistic about certain things.
I'm a self-employed professional photographer. Since photography is my hobby as well as my profession
it is a major factor in my life. Let me know if you'd like to see my photography on my website. I'm very interested in computer imaging also.
Snowboarding, skiing, mountain biking, kayaking, skateboarding, and body boarding are among the sports I'm into. I’m always open to trying new ones. I'd much rather go participate in a sport than
watch someone else doing one. I love all kinds of visual arts and like to go to museums and galleries. I like to travel to new places, especially national parks. Gardening, especially with native plants is something that I enjoy. I also have a large number of houseplants.
My daughter was born on 12/12/03.

Midwestern-nice homebody who spends most nights with a movie or TV show—horror and sci-fi are favorites. Books and music keep things balanced. I enjoy watching spectator sports, especially baseball, because I can’t play them well. Devoted dog dad to Gus, a mall pet store rescue who runs the household and is terrified of cats. I live in New Jersey and only want to date locally (Eastern PA is fine). Traveling is overrated, and typically, something old is better than anything new.
Dark and dry humor, low-energy evenings, good stories, and someone who can enjoy the same things without forcing excitement are my style. If that sounds like your idea of fun, we’ll probably get along.

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.......

I am into the usual stuff like gardening, computers, cars and in addition to ham radio.I can spend hours walking through a forest or paddling down a river identifying and observing plant and animal life for hours. I enjoy fixing electronic equipment other things.

安息日 (Shabbat): we all need a break from the vanities of the world. 蛤蟆跳三跳,还要歇一些。"Even a frog, after three leaps, needs to rest."
Strive to live a simple, nonmaterialistic, meaningful, and purposeful life. I'm a Luddite at heart, reminiscing about the halcyon days when we weren't overdependent on technology. I embrace sechel, not artificial intelligence, and modesty, not social media. 不患莫己知,求为可知也。"Don't fret about not being well-known; instead, strive to be worthy of being known" (Analects, book 4, verse 14). Jewish ideals inform and guide in all aspects of life. These include honesty; respect for the sanctity of all life, which includes being veg*n; not hurting people's feelings or saying negative things about them; shunning gratuitous hatred of those who think differently; giving others the benefit of the doubt and the opportunity to do the right thing; concern for the vulnerable and the disabled; having a higher purpose in life, including work; and learning for the sake of learning, including from everyone! But people with similar values come from many paths in life, the ultimate expression of which is being a mensch or, as Confucius termed it, a jūnzǐ (君子), someone who sets an example through his or her actions, which speak louder than words.
Enjoy hiking, being in nature, lizard-watching, learning, artistic creativity, and dry and waggish humor (but not sarcasm). Introverted and sometimes lost in thought, but hopefully thoughtful in more ways than one! Look for ways to help others while avoiding self-serving feelings like validation and pride. Adventurous but also risk-averse.
I live in the desert, which teaches humility, not only because we are dwarfed by the majestic mountains and the expansive valleys but also because we are humbled by the miraculous, mind-blowing adaptations that allow life in all its forms to not merely survive but thrive in the most challenging of environments. Nature can be our teacher and help us improve our character traits.
I stopped practicing clinical medicine 30 years ago when it was no longer possible to do so ethically. My magnum opus has been the definitive treatise on Jewish medicine, a moral, integrated philosophy and system of practice that is free of self-interest and that patients need not fear to enter.
And now, for the final course, mon petit chou, my sweet, here is your fortune cookie: 好话不在多,几句成知己。"Good-hearted words need not be many; just a few can make a close friend."
Headshot is from July, 2023.
Simple, independent, spontaneous and low-maintenance person
Lacto vegetarian by birth .. Foodie :)... fond of to try new vegan cuisines but not cooking :P
Love to backpack adventurous travel, close to live in nature, Artistic in nature and researcher by passion and profession. Professionally I engage in research field especially in public health and demography and final stage of PhD (Submitting the thesis).
Passionate and curious about new learning, Cultural adaptive
Long-distance runner, actively involved in yoga, trekking -camping on mountains and Himalayan regions...
Environment lover, so try to the recycling of natural products which are in my control and Plant adopter.
Family is my priority .and love to spend precious times with partner and children ( yes, I love kids most and like to spend more time with them)...if you have family who loves and care for you then you are the richest person on the earth :)

Yes, true!
I am happily single and navigating life's adventures solo.
With no marriage plus zero offspring in the rear view mirror.
Speaking of adventures!
You will often find me soaking up outdoor beauty – it is where I feel truly alive.
While I appreciate the thrill of sports, my heart beats a little faster for the focus and artistry found in creative pursuits.
Now, here is a fun curve: I have developed a lifelong love for bowling.
(Though enjoying the lanes tends to be a rare treat...)
Rest assured, my monogrammed balls are polished and ready to roll – yes, bowling balls!
While I frequently enjoy strikes with plenty of dynamic pin action (Hubba! Hubba!) my daily life leans towards refreshing simplicity.
I frequently find immense joy in moments of casual relaxation.
I also wholeheartedly welcome spontaneity.
I potentially even entertain and enjoy radical impulse in unique and profound instances.
Ultimately, I deeply value vulnerability and the spark of genuine passion in life.

My educational background is BS in Chemistry and a Masters in Math and Computer Science. Most of my career has been in computer science. I ran a software company for 14 years and sold it. I subsequently got bored and gave myself a job.
Now my day job is web design. My nighttime passion is dancing. I devote much of my free time in dance practice as a competitive ballroom dancer I compete currently at the championship level throughout the US. I'm a former Stanford University adjunct professor where I taught social dance for 9 years. I also authored their social dance curriculum.
I enjoy movies/tv (esp. sci-fi), theatre (esp. musicals), occasional ice skating (I was quite adept in my 20s, but pretty rusty now), and chilling at a beach or retreat center. I use to do yoga, but not so much lately.
I also enjoy traveling. My last biggie was one month in Tawain. So inspired, I'm currently learning Mandarin Chinese. I'm still pretty bad (我的中文不好).
I'm also bi-coastal. Until the pandemic hit, I'd spend a few months/year in Pompano Beach (South Florida) where I have a condo. The remainder of the year, unless traveling, I spend at my primary home in Los Altos Hills (Northern California).
