I’m here to connect on a deeper level, seeking genuine conversations rather than relationships, job opportunities, or visa sponsorships. I long to hear your personal stories and experiences, not to swap photos or dive in romantic discussions.

Life has thrown its share of detours my way, and I’m working hard to reclaim my sense of routine. So please be patient with sporadic replies at this time.

At 47, I live in the U.S. with my mother. Recently widowed. These challenges have been difficult, and don't ask about my kids. They have died. I prefer not to delve into and please respect that. I treasure deep, meaningful conversations about our journeys rather than debates.

If you speak another language but interested in texting/typing, don’t worry; I can use Google Translate to keep our conversation flowing.

I truly look forward to connecting with you and sharing in the richness of our experiences.

When we show we can have a good conversation on here, I will go to another app.  Take time to share and converse before asking for another app.

Clean and polite conversations only. Let's share stories of life, culture and all the ups and downs in this journey.

If you judge by skin color, country, age or body then best not to contact me. I'm here to meet the souls not the flesh.

I only know English, but do not mind using translators if needed.

I am a student of life, I love to learn and teach what little I know.. I have 2 dogs. Enjoy hiking, camping,  and such is also an interest for me and my pups.  I like hanging out at home over coffee and having a great conversation. Love learning about the daily life of others.

Please write at least full sentences and not just one or two words.

All types, but mainly industrial, gothic, electronica, classical, native/tribal music

Meet me in St. Louis, A Knight's Tale, The Order, Waterworld, Nightmare on Elm street series, Anything with Bruce Willis, Heath Ledger, Jody Foster, Nicole Kidman, or foreign films if I get a chance.

To Kill a Mockingbird, People of the (series) Lakes, Notes from the Underground, The Red Snow, anything about lesser known people and lives they lived, or good story lines which makes me think.
Currently reading Meg and Phantom.
