In His Own Words
About him
I live in London and my 2 children are grown up and independent but I often see them because they live nearby and sometimes stay.
I enjoy seeing the funny side of life, being generous and come to life and spark by being with people. I like to meet new people and have a wide group of friends, many of them long standing friendships from university. I'm outgoing, although I can be shy at first, and want to understand others' emotions and be understood in return.
I have a zest for life and empathy, warmth and passion are important to me. I also have a strong sense of ambition and doing the best I can, combined with honesty and integrity.
I really enjoy living in London, going out to see exhibitions, as well as going to drawing classes although I don't do that often enough, most types of visual art and architecture, in particular art that makes you connect emotionally so that you travel to a different place. Also going to the theatre, concerts and films, opera sometimes.
Getting away for weekends or longer trips to go walking in the country, sit by a real fire, see beautiful or interesting places, being warm and enjoying the culture in Southern Europe.
As well as walking, in particular in the mountains, I enjoy playing tennis to keep fit and skiing. Also gardening to try to combine beauty and a bit of mystery too.
Delicious food, including cooking it, and good wine, eating out and at home, shared with friends, chatting to set the world to rights or laugh and relax.
I also enjoy my job, working in an international firm based in London, which connects me with lots of people.
About his ideal match
I'm looking for a woman with a love of life, who is outgoing, relaxed and knows herself. Someone who is creative and would enjoy doing things together, sharing a love of art and culture, who is intelligent and enjoys conversation to appreciate the experiences of the day.
Most of all, someone who is generous, honest, kind, likes to laugh
and connects emotionally and understands the feelings of others and has warmth and passion.
