In His Own Words
About him
I am socially engaging and a purposeful colonial type, who is also inquisitive, creative, low-key and slightly eccentric. As a farmer's son I am naturally practical and have an emotionally observant demeanour, whilst being principled, discrete and loyal. I've spent years working internationally and developed a down-to-earth outlook and a contemplative, but hospitable manner. I am attracted by any form of enlightenment, a sense of the ridiculous and open countryside, but usually resistant to crowds, manipulation, the mean spirited and the over-animated. Other characteristics are a tendency to observe life proceedings from afar, occasionally puritanical and sometimes prickly.
I spend leisure time on single fatherhood duties, absorbing anthropology, current affairs, politics, travel, cycling, hiking, athletics, dabbling in DIY and R&B music.
About his ideal match
An elegant lady who is cosmopolitan, intelligent and sociable, but might also be equitable, reliable, independent and self-composed. I think such characteristics would best suit in forming a complimentary relationship, but opposing qualities would be lack of regard for technical and scientific types, having a self-centred outlook to a partnership or being of an unduly reserved disposition. Unfavourable traits could be construed as; too moody, too shallow or too heavy.
