In His Own Words
About him
Warm, reflective, gentle. Softly spoken, introverted, but good with people. Ex-academic with a modest and contented lifestyle. Adore laughter and affection. Hoping to find a close companion to expand my small social network, and to add joy to off-peak wandering in the UK and Europe.
About his ideal match
An accomplished, calm, quiet and thoughtful person. Somebody well spoken and well mannered, with a positive outlook. A hugger. On the slim side, ideally.
