In His Own Words
About him
Two people one dream, one shared life. Anything less is pointless.
The rainforest reference in my headline - speaks to the earth-nature connection which goes straight to the heart of one's soul. Living in rainforest changed me forever.
My self rating: Straight arrow seeks slightly bent beau (f.) House-trained, all mod cons., fit IT professional but sold my business and now doing what I can for climate action. A pianist & music lover, and sometime chef - I like cooking, a few things well.
Tall, lean, very fit, yoga-nut, cycling, lean, well-educated, VERY healthy, fair-minded. I like clothes (Italian is best), dress well when the occasion suits, jeans are fine too. I do astanga for the breathing, fitness, meditative calm.
Almost all vegetarian diet, healthy organic food, but no fusses or allergies. Full vegan maybe or flexible as partner's preferences go.
I like greens, but not as a golfer. Prefer Scotland to England (I'm a clan Graham)..
I've been described as both "one of the kindest men" & very ambitious. Both surprised me at the time, since then I've learnt to like the ambition. I don't have many material goals - I keep my tech fairly up to date while happy to buy upcycled devices. I'm confident in my own beliefs. I ticked the sarcastic but really I'm ironic, not sarcaustic. Where is teasing, quirky?
I usually wake up happy (& early). There isn't any part of my day I wouldn't want to share but I advise I have a slightly bent sexuality.
After volunteer projects in Borneo & a year as a software business CEO, now for new goals. I'd like to write, that needs mind space which canbecrowdedoutbybusyjob. Travel is best as a shared adventure.
Update 2022 as chair of the apartment property committee I’m finally getting to organise a block sale and make a move out of the CBD I no longer need to be in. Wildlife, restoring ecosystem somewhere.
Hope something here connects with that witty, intelligent, self-caring, heart-centred woman who is meant to be in my future for a very long time!
About his ideal match
Attractive, in smile & personality as well as looks, good conversation but no need to be too scientific! You know we all need each other & support each other, but you're not dependent.
You like music, perhaps play an instrument, or have a musical appreciation.
Looks - I'm exceptionally fit, healthy & in great physical shape, and the "cilck" needs that to match for me. A yoga regular appeals for the mental-physical discipline & the awareness of spirit.
Hopefully your baggage gets opened & used when you arrive somewhere new. Travelling with lots of baggage that doesn't get opened is just as needless in life as in travelling.
Update:
Intelligence to see how things connect. And how they might. Stylish, good taste, and you like looking good. Don't take life too seriously, except for the serious parts!
Arts interest is important, music would be nice. if not play together, to enjoy listening together - Bach, Handel, Scarlatti, Mozart, Rachmaninoff, Tchaikovsky, Debussy, Netrebko, Atlas N, Plant R, Stone J, Parlato G, Wonder S, Beck J, Jarrett K, Hancock H, many many more .... even the odd bit of Pink. Her Led Zep is a blast.
Politics - not important, I'm a mix of compassion to help others, and a strong belief in self-help, self-teach. We're all different.
