Saechan, 65

Hello,

I'm originally from Japan, and now living in California. I'm a 65-year-old semi-retiree. I worked mostly in education, and these days, I work part-time at a cram school for Japanese students and enjoy the slower pace of semi-retirement.

Money is invaluable. But if I have to choose between money and time, I choose time. I'm aware that my time left is finite and precious, and I want to spend my time doing what leads to a life with joy and peace. How?

I work doing what I'm good at and enjoy; I take dance and singing classes to activate happy hormones; I choose podcasts, videos, and articles that nourish my mind and spirit; I prioritize staying in touch with people I care about; I exercise and eat well to sustain a capable body; I keep my surroundings uncluttered; and I try to practice a mindful way of living whenever I can remember. Of course, all of these with full of ups and downs, and trial and error.

Ultimately, I hope to find a loving partner. To start, I'm looking for friendship, and if it grows into a partnership, that would be wonderful. I'm open to living in California, Hawaii, and even Japan, and I would go where I find the deepest connections.

I hope to get to know you if what I shared so far resonates with you.

Warmly,

Saeko
