In His Own Words
About him
This part doesn't feel natural to me, too. So I'll keep to basics, hope we might meet to exchange more notes (beyond a round or two of emails / calls, etc.)
I'm warm-spirited (can be shy at start), realist but optimistic by nature, relatively independent, curious (too many unknown unknowns!) .
I enjoy the usual pleasures: cinema, music (eclectic), theatre, travel (long/short haul, city, country, local), walks, being active, reasonably fit (not obsessively), reading and radio (but minimal TV). I've retained a sporty outlook though not played in ages! Perhaps resuming some (table tennis, possibly badminton and tennis) or taking up one would be fun. I try to enjoy a walk most days, and cycle (in fair weather); and find gardening such a great way to unwind (except in rain!). Some of life's elixirs, wouldn't you agree?
I've had my share of 'ups and downs', but always looking to progress, appreciative of life and living.
Seeking a kindred spirit, with whom to share some interests, special and simple moments, pastimes, leisure activities, walks, laughs, etc., not least travels. Just as you might, I do also enjoy my space and solitude.

About his ideal match
A like-minded and independent soul, looking to share some time, laughs, leisure, and interests, etc.
An interest in pursuing a sport or leisure activity as a mutual pastime would be good fun - though but not a necessity.
So, might that be you?
