In His Own Words
About him
People should get to know me because I am an interesting and fun blend of old with new. If you speak to me, you may at first think me very traditional and English - which I am. But, I am also keen on thinking 'outside the box'. So, you generally speaking I do 'traditional' kind of things - trips to country houses, museums, galleries etc. Sometimes, however, I do something novel - such as laughter yoga - which keeps things balanced for me.
I enjoy reading, ideas and education. I am passionate about psychology and history - both of which I studied for degrees (separately). I also work in education and it matters to me that my work makes a positive difference to those around me. To this end, I like a particular project of mine that has been developed in a very interest way of late - more details available on request!
I like to relax too and I recently, I decided to re-balance the amount of time I spend 'having fun' - and give myself more time to relax. I felt joining this site would be a good starting point. So, here I am!
About his ideal match
Someone with compatible hobbies and perspectives to my own. I really value communication, so it would be important to me that a potential partner can talk to me and engage in a conversation reasonably. An interest in psychology, history or art is likely to be helpful. A good sense of humour is a must! The rest is pretty much negotiable.
