I am an American that is well-educated, confident, driven, genuine, generous, loyal, intellectually curious, yet, down to earth and funny. I try live life to fullest each and every day. My passion is cooking, great food, and wine with great company. Traveling and exploring new things are important to me. Years ago, I lived abroad in Sweden for about five years.
I live a healthy, active lifestyle with good eating habits, and a wide variety of exercise. However, I am more athletic than toned but I have made significant changes with Yoga, running, and going to the gym. Regrettably, I am still recovering from an old Army injury.
What separates me from most other men is that I still believe in romance and being the perfect gentleman; values I attribute to growing up with three sisters and my mother I am seeking someone who is an adventurer at heart, but with her feet well-grounded, intelligent, independent, open-minded, and isn't afraid to speak her mind. I am interested in finding someone who appreciates the simple things in life--love, laughter, and relationships. I prefer someone who has a good sense of humor and possess strong values to bring into a relationship. I'm hoping to meet a special soulmate who is extraordinary with a big heart. Someone who enjoys spending time together. A person who is positive, enjoys life, and someone I'll never stop appreciating! Life is too short not to take chances...so take a chance. Nothing ventured is nothing gained.
