I like to go for walks, ride my bike along country roads and the trails along lake Ontario, , visit Shaw Festival, I don't drink or smoke...
I also like to travel. I would love to do the train ride through the Rockies, a Europe river cruise... I meditate every day and live a peaceful life, and try to bring kindness and goodness into my relationships. Looking for a kind person to share time with- I have been teaching Buddhist meditation for over 30 years- but am very open to all spiritual traditions. I have led retreats with people from all spiritual traditions. |
