In His Own Words
About him
I am passionate, and can be opinionated, but am also a decent listener. Soap operas and second-hand opinions are not for me.
I am happy spending time by myself, so am looking for a like minded partner to share the special things of life with; relaxing over a barbecue after a ten mile hike; enjoying beautiful view and buildings of all eras; reading poetry and hearing songs of innocence and experience: Glyndebourne and Glastonbury and everything in between,
I consider myself an unconventional person with a broad range of interests. My work involves design, property and architecture, but I also love sports, hiking and the outdoors. I am a keen writer of prose, poetry and lyrics, which I do with my musician son.
About his ideal match
Energy, passion, veracity, loyalty, questing, joy, beauty, quietness and openness are qualities I cherish in a life companion. I would like to meet someone independent and self assured, who can also laugh at life’s idiosyncrasies and occasionally - themselves.
Whether up a volcano, watching remote sunsets, curled up with a book of poems in front of a winter fire, watching a good film with a bottle of 1986 Gevrey Chambertin, or listening to wildlife calls, these moments are best shared.
Somnolence and lassitude is fine on occasions, but not as a way of life. First hand experience conquers all.
