In His Own Words
About him
I live in the city and value each opportunity for a day in the hills, a cycle-ride or some sailing when possible.
Other interests are music, photography, literature, wine and food.
Left-leaning in politics. Try to keep abreast of events. Enjoy discussing.
I am honest and caring, a bit reserved perhaps, but assured.
Travel: in the past I've focussed on slow visits, principally mainland Europe, out-of-the-way places.
I'm active day by day, not a gym person. Keen on Pilates.
About his ideal match
My ideal match will be a person of integrity and variety with a lively sense of humour and compassion. I hope for someone who cares about staying active and healthy.
She will value companionship, whether in the freedom of easy conversation or being together for say a gallery visit, a shared meal, or a day in the hills.
It would be good to share trips away and holidays.
A catalyst, so one plus one will make more than two.
