I am attracted to women who are intellectually stimulating, curious and open to discovering the wonders of a simple life. I prefer a woman who is genuine, does not need to pretend or impress, find joy in simple pleasures, and who likes herself very much.

I also prefer a woman with a very strong sense of independence, a woman who has her own interests, who values her "alone time," who likes to spend time by herself, with friends or family. I'd like to find a woman to love each other, not to need each other.

I believe in living the precious moment to the fullest. I practice mindful living to the best of my ability, finding or creating joy in the "here and now" whenever and wherever it may be. I believe in personal responsibility in regards to happiness: I can't make anybody happy and I don't expect anybody to make me happy either. It is up to each of us to create our own happiness.
