Vegan diet.
I am outgoing, friendly and enjoy doing social things when with a partner. I find when I am single I tend to stay home more, which I also enjoy very much. Movies, hiking, good conversation and being outdoors are a few things I enjoy doing. Most often I am found at home because my property has become a mini-sanctuary for several species of birds. Plus I share my home with rescued cats and am active in TNR (Trap-Neuter-Return). My partner doesn't need to participate, but would be preferred if he respected and supported my passions, as I would his.
Spending my time outside with my sanctuary residents is fantastic. Plus it is so beautiful here and the weather is great.
My serious side also involves maintaining my health. I worked as a pharmacist, but I am more of an anti-pharmacist! Prevention and acquiring good habits are the keys to a vital life. I worked in hospitals and know that western medicine can play an important role as well.
I was raised in Brooklyn, NY, lived in NJ and now live in the southwest since 2004. Love the climate here, preferring sunny dry days to the cloudiness and humidity of the northeast.

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 seichel, not artificial intelligence, and tznius, not social media. "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; giving people 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 junzi, 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 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. Empathetic to the point that it can sometimes cause distress. Adventurous but also risk-averse. Vegan for 35 years.
I live in the desert, which, it has been said, 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 is our teacher and helps us improve our character traits.
Having stopped practicing clinical medicine almost 30 years ago when it was no longer possible to do so ethically in the current environment, I've written extensively about the depraved medical system, one in which those who are in it shouldn't be and those who should be aren't, and about how it should be.
And now, for the final course, mon petit chou, my sweet, here is your fortune cookie containing another Chinese proverb: "Good-hearted words don't need to be many; just a few can make a close friend."

My female friends compliment my deep voice and my irreverent sense of humor. I'm intelligent, passionate when so inspired, playful, sentimental, communicative, unpretentious and friendly. My affinities for dance and music include contra, cajun, zydeco, waltz, swing, bluegrass and folk. I'm an activist for social justice and conservation, a self-employed consultant and a community college instructor. Large dogs are wonderful companions for me. Sadie and I enjoy the usual activities: going for walks, playing with tennis balls, greeting friends, taking naps, and being in the moment. We seldom squabble.
Rossis a 63 year old, spiritual male.

Vegan diet.
My name is Ross and I am a 50 year old male living in Tucson, Arizona. Due to my healthy eating lifestyle as well as my activity level, I truly feel blessed that I haven't felt any older physicaly for a very long time. I have been a vegan for nearly 30 years now, and have finally decided that my strong beliefs into this issue make it so that in order for me to attain the type of long lasting relationship I seek, I must search out other's who share my ethical beliefs. I am a practicing massage therapist, and a working musician, enjoying a balanced life doing what I love. I have had the great opportunity to travel the world, and I plan to continue that throughout my life. I also am active and physical, enjoying hiking, biking, tennis, yoga and working out to stay fit. I also am very interested in Eastern spirituality, as well.
Jasonis a 59 year old, Agnostic / not religious male.
Living in Tucson, arizona
Almost veg diet.
Reading is my favorite activity. More of a listener than a talker, unless it's a subject of great interest (music, politics). I am easygoing and cheerful most of the time. I like traditional pop and light rock music (playing and singing), getting out into nature, and keeping fit. I exercise frequently; hiking and weight training mostly. My politics are mostly progressive. I also love cats, and live with one currently. MBTI: INTJ

Minestroneis a 71 year old, Atheist female.
Living in Tucson, arizona
Almost veg diet.
Independent, partial to books (particularly literature but lately quite a bit of non fiction in an attempt to come to some understanding of the forces that are warping us), walkabouts, gardening, filming, drawing, swimming in the sea, news, independent and foreign films and music, travel, and, yes, yoga. I vote and sometimes work on campaigns. Every once in a while I eat a fish but I'm not proud of it. Raw food and organic veggies, green juice and other goody goody food makes me feel energetic. I am trying to put my house back together now that I've gotten down to a blank slate. Oh, enough about me; I hear an echo. What about you?
LeslieBis a 51 year old, spiritual female.

Veggie/vegan diet.
Hmmm...I'm a very creative person. At times an introvert at other times an extrovert. I love being in the moment and having fun. I can be spontaneous, jumping in the car with an idea and just take it from there or plan things alittle more thoroughly. I like the idea of homebase, to travel to and from. I'm a beach lover, and will be headed back to the sea soon. I love listening to music, going to see live music, dancing, making things, gardening, documentaries, volunteering, riding my bike, clothes, travel, alternative/sustainable housing, heathy living, herb, lots of things...all in a balance
I've been pretty free-spirited. I haven't been married and now some people I know are getting divorced. I think when you're more mature, you're more grounded in who you are, and more likely to be content...just a theory...

Vegan diet.
I'm a pretty easy going, open minded, positive person who likes to have fun. I live in Arizona but travel a bit in the US (usually in the southwest) for work and would love to meet up with other vegans/vegetarians when I do. I enjoy hiking, camping, reading, music, skiing, art, movies, road trips, crossword puzzles, cooking. I'm vegan because I don't want my life to depend on harming animals.
