In His Own Words
About him
Well travelled ,multi-lingual,guy who enjoys getting of the beaten track as well as 5 star luxury.Have an all time favourite so far ...Laos ..but still got plenty to go on the "bucket "list.Covid has put the mockers on travel at the moment .Look forward to the world getting back to some sort of normality.
I am self employed and work in the travel industry( nothing going on at the moment ) , and have lived and worked in both France and Spain..About 12years ago I returned to the UK after nearly 7 years living and working in the South of France (where I owned a restaurant) and have now relocated to the sunny Algarve in Portugal for he last 8years.
I completed a 10000 km bike ride (by myself) over a period of 10 months throughout Asia,before making the easy journey down here (just 3000kms) on my trusty bike ..glad to get off it in the end !
Im 61,fit ,enjoy sport from padel and football to a relaxing game of golf.I love cycling and walking -and generally exploring. Avid Scrabble player and love reading and listening to music .
An ideal evening ...fine wine and good food (with the right person ) ...it doesnt matter where...some of the best locations are the simplest . I can knock up a decent meal in the kitchen-but its much more fun when the cooking is shared .
