In His Own Words
About him
I’m interested in getting to know you. I need to challenged and stretched. My friends think I’m outgoing and confident but really I am quite shy. I enjoying trying new things but will not bungee jump. I really enjoy Art and music. I’m getting into jazz. I am not well informed about either and enjoy finding out. I seem to travel a lot. This year I visited a Pre Raphaelite exhibition near Bologna, hiked in Lazio, spent a few days in Venice at the bienniale. I had a motorbike adventure in Lao then a road trip in Western Australia. I enjoy exploring new areas in the UK just as much. I do Pilates and Yoga badly but refuse to give up. I’m lefty and have green views and am upset by the lack of action on the climate emergency. Yes I can spot the contradictions. I want to do a bit making the world a better place.
About his ideal match
I am a sapiosexual and any relationship starts with friendship and kindness. I like my mind to be stretched kindly. I assume that we would spend time together in art and cultural activities. I enjoy wine and intriguing food. I detest smoking.
