Wanderingwendy, 68

Friends say I'm the most optimistic and determined woman they have ever met. I focused on my home and family when my daughter was growing up...a homestead, home business and my daughter was home schooled. I love to cook and nurture. In this next phase of my life I also want to lovingly nurture those around me while going on adventures and exploring new places.

My life has been full of travel, camping, learning and loving. I seem to have a knack for encouraging others to follow their dreams. Getting down to the true self and stripping away convention to get to the inner goodness has been my life long project.

When it comes to a life partner, I am looking for a man who is both grounded and ready to fly! He understands the importance of a close bond between man and woman and enjoys diverse interests that can then be shared. Being unique individuals that celebrate life and love together is a joy! Unconditional love is important to me. A successful relationship includes deeply personal insights and shared excitement of the possibilities of life.

One of God's greatest commandments is to love and care for one another. Besides close family and friends, that includes the whole world. We have each been given talents that make the world a better place when we share.

I spent this last summer camping in primitive sites all over the Adirondacks. I have traveled up to half of every year for many years and full-timed in my RV for 2 years. I was a homesteader and organic farmer most of my adult life. I lived in an underground house way back in the woods of Vermont until 3 years ago when I sold it and took off on adventures. I'm living in an apartment now, at least for the winter.

I have no idea who my ideal match is! He will be someone who thinks and loves deeply, who is not afraid to show it and who loves the world and what it has to offer. He will love me because of my attributes and even because of my quirks.
