I am an easy-going guy with a great sense of humour, albeit twisted at times. I like to cook, try new wines, and really enjoy exploring new and different kinds of music across a wide variety of genres. I think chilling out with some soothing, downtempo tunes and a glass of wine and some cheese is a great way to wile away a cool winters night.

I am looking for a woman with a big heart, a great smile, and an effervescent personality with whom I can share some stimulating conversation and casual, easy going, fun times - a night on the town, a day trip in the car, or a quiet evening at home - which would probably include the aforementioned wine, cheese and tunes.

I really enjoy outdoor activities, so I would love to meet someone who shares an interest in hiking, camping, biking, or other such pursuits.

I think the first date should be low key and casual like coffee or drinks. Because the primary purpose is to get to know the person a litle bit and decide if you want to go on a second date - which can then be something more elaborate and stimulating. I think the best second date is one that relates to some common interest discovered on the first date - with a bit of a romantic twist perhaps.
