In His Own Words
About him
Thanks for peeking at my profile!
I'm an easy going guy who loves to travel...a lot (well, except for now)! I like meeting people from all over the world and experiencing new cultures. Having lived in four very different countries likely has something to do with this. I have made many friends around the globe and try to visit them often.
My goal is to see at least one new country every year, recent first time visits have been to Slovenia, Iceland, Bulgaria and Ukraine. Travelling with someone and sharing those special moments would be even better than most of the solo travels I do though the friends abroad do look after me well.
When at home, I enjoy cooking Thai, French, Chinese, Canadian (which I guess is anything as it is so diverse) are some of my specialities so would love to cook for you or with you. I also enjoy eating out, theatre and of course spending time with friends at home or the pub. I'm looking for someone with some similar interests and I am always open to new experiences.
I enjoy golf (my handicap are my clubs), skiing (that's downhill, not jogging on skis - though happy to try it), tennis and badminton (need to get the raquet strung) and open to try new sports too. My mountain bike is in the shed and looking for a co-rider!
Sound interesting to you? Drop me a line now!
About his ideal match
I hope you like travelling and has done some travel or wants to travel.
A good date would be when we meet up for a drink or dinner and time just flies away while we make each other laugh, talk about life and memorable events life has thrown at us.
I'm happy to meet women with children, ideally where the children are old enough to have a bit of independence or are generally not living at home.
I love kids and have a gorgeous 9 year old Goddaughter and a two year old niece - just don't ask me to change diapers...yet!
I wish I could predict if we'd have great chemistry but only way to find out is to talk and meet so do get in touch.
