In His Own Words
About him
A warm and friendly guy seeking a special partner to share his life and adventures. I have travelled widely in my life, in Australia visiting cousins, scuba diving in the Pacific, sailing in the Med and on a walking safari in South Africa and enjoyed it all enormously.
I am now much less active in chasing my tail around the globe. I prefer to focus on interesting areas, often through a historical lense and hopefully with a partner with whom to savour the cultural delights on offer.
I am an emotionally intelligent guy with a good sense of humour who is several years out of marriage. I now hope for a new relationship based on caring and sharing.
I enjoy most types of music, cinema, theatre, a walk in the park or a picnic in the countryside. My holidays tend to be relaxing but interesting. I am not a sunbed type but prefer to be exploring the ruins or searching for wildlife. This does not mean that I cannot be content with curling up with a special partner beside a log fire enjoying a glass of good wine.

About his ideal match
My ideal partner will be intelligent and active with a good sense of humour. She will be confident and able to hold her own while being sensitive, loving and kind. She will have an inquisitive mind and hopefully enjoy travelling.
