In His Own Words
About him
My passions are good music, cooking and entertaining, food and wine, nature gardening and travel. I am a sociable animal and would like to meet a woman with like minded interests and see where or if it might lead to anything greater. When I lived in Cape town I made wine (Cabernet Sauvignon) in two different vineyards in 2001 and 2003 as well as mentoring in the townships for 4 years. I am also a qualified tour guide for Cape town and Western Province. Prior to going to live in Cape town I started what is now a national fish distribution company. My friends consider me as very full of life and outgoing.
About his ideal match
First and foremost a relationship must have honesty, trust and mutual respect for each other in it for without those qualities a relationship will flounder from the start. I don't think age is anywhere near as important as attitude of mind and the ability to be kind to each other and respect each others views, have fun laugh and be able to make each other happy. A meal and a bottle of wine are both meant to be shared not eaten or drunk alone and a relationship however solid is to my mind like a fire. Once you stop putting logs on it it will eventually die!!!
