In His Own Words
About him
I think my friends would say I am easy to get on with and not pushy, but polite, good company, and reliable. I am comfortable with that.
The photos of me are all taken in the last year or so and are from Greece, the Arctic, Peru, the Amazon, and the Antarctic. Career-wise, I was a full-time secondary school teacher, which I really enjoyed, and also taught at a University for a few years helping to train new teachers.
Music has been a constant in my life, with the three main influences being the somewhat eclectic mix of Deep Purple, Harvey Andrews, and Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina. I do still like a good pop song though.
I love travel and am looking to further expand my boundaries: Sicily, Venice, Australia, New Zealand, Egypt, Jordan, Vietnam, Cambodia, Mongolia, Uzbekistan, India and many other countries are on my travel list. You will have recognised that travel is important to me and is something I will continue to do, but it is so much better with someone who shares your enthusiasm and is open-minded to new experiences. So, I want to travel - do you as well?
About his ideal match
I recognise the importance of having a connection with someone, irrespective of whether this stays as friendship or moves further into a relationship. Sometimes though, just meeting occasionally for a coffee or a cinema trip can be good.
To summarise everything therefore, although there needs to be a connection between us, looks are not a priority. How could they be? Personality and outlook are far more important. Just be kind, affable, not pushy, have a sense of humour, and easy to be with. We then have a very good chance of getting on..............
