In His Own Words
About him
I am an amateur writer launching a mystical/sacred romance saga. []takes me away to magical lands---whenever I have a spare minute. Now that the books are complete I am busy promoting the series. My two sons live abroad and my daughter is completing Uni this year. Family is very important to me. I like to provide a nourishing, warm and reliable home. I am closely involved in alternative education. I run holistic Parent/Child groups out of two venues which means I am working in the heart of my local communities, something I enjoy. I also like to sing; I am a member of a local choir. I am interested in all things artistic, eco, sustainable, holistic, spiritual & reverent. Readers may reckon this places me firmly in the 'hippy camp', which I can assure them it doesn't. I am not especially sporty, although I can ride, ski, play tennis etc. to an average level. I enjoy being in water. I try to swim three times a week. I love to walk silently, shhh. New Zealand is my second home. Five years ago I returned from 6 years in the Bay of Plenty. I love animals and have a small dog that I brought home from NZ. She had a litter three years ago and I have kept one puppy--so now I own two dogs, or rather, they own me! I like to read--and learn--always learning. I love to share what I have learnt. I tend to be an instigator of community enterprise, especially if design is incorporated. I have run several small, home-based businesses over the past years, from Interior Decorating to Farmers' Markets, as well as Kindergartens--projects that I have passed on to others and I am pleased to say are still going strong. I enjoy meeting people and networking whenever opportunities present themselves. Now that my family has all but left home I am ready for a new chapter. I am open to moving locations and beginning again. Life is a thrilling adventure that keeps getting better.
About his ideal match
Kindness and empathy are at the top of my list---coupled with a hunger for spiritual learning in a quiet, gentle way. I come from a classical background but enjoy an alternative, surprising twist . A partner would need to appreciate and enjoy a different take. Physical,mental and spiritual chemistry are paramount. Literary communication is very important-----I love to share creative writing projects, as well as explore our beautiful world with a significant other. I am relatively tied with domestic routines, so writing is important in any relationship---be it friends or something more. The older I become, the more I realize we have so much to learn. I have been through some interesting and revelatory experiences--hence my writing---with which any future partner would need to empathize and hopefully enjoy. As we step into 2020 I am turning the page. I hope I might meet a new crew member along the way. P.s. Sailing at dawn! :)
