If you are an intelligent, funny man who knows how to laugh, relax... love life, children, family and companionship-Please read on. Are you ready for committment, honesty, sincerity, trust, love, intimacy? My life is pretty busy so I am not looking to waste time on those who are looking for the short term.
-------------------------------------------
Well I have compiled a profile about me that is probably too long. I thought about shortening it but I think I won't as it is about who I am and what I am looking for.

Political leanings: fairly conservative for Seattle..... Depends on the issue.
Favorite expensive hobby: travelling I worked/lived in Zurich Switzerland so I travelled around quite a bit. The travel bug bit. Greece, France, Spain, Mallorca, Italy, Germany, Austria, Hungary, England, and Ireland. Favorite travel spots:
Ireland- it makes me feel a wee bit at home to be there but ahhh Greece.... Such peace to float and open your eyes to white architecture gripping the cliffs and the blue waters surrounding you.
Scariest travel spots: almost drowning in the water on the same float that I was floating on...It kept flipping in the wind and I kept swimming after it.

More about me:
I am working on living a healthier lifestyle (read- become less full figured) so I look forward to someone who is in the same boat and is willing to do active activities together. I am very motivated and have had a successful start to 2012. I bike to work twice a week and go to the gym 3-5 times a week.
Seattle hasn't completed changed me...I still give a smile to those I don't know!! Although people have stopped saying,"you're not from around here are you?" update...Ok someone said it to me yesterday on the bus...How I smiled and greeted her...Well she continued to talk to me for the entire bus ride with her life story. I must have that face that people feel comfortable opening up to or maybe I was just an ear for the moment... Wow the positive about that conversation was that I learned my life is good for the moment.
I am endlessly curious by nature and fill my head with knowledge (sometimes useless) I am the one at work they call to find out anything... This rings in another trait in that I am the first to help.
Please no broken or angry hearts, shirtless pics, empty profiles, etc.I notice that a lot of people on here don't have much written on their profile or no photos or just write hi. Not much to go on...Please tell me more
If you are reading this still, I would love to hear from you.
