Born and raised in Europe, matured in Canada.Honest,eclectic and well-travelled.
Committed to my craft and believing there's more to life than the ennui of every-day grind...
I believe in dating one person at a time(what a concept!). I also believe in inspiring conversation. I'm not too crazy about small talk and exchanging the obligatory phrases. I am genuine. I say what I mean and I mean what I say...
My sense of humor is on the sarcastic side, I tend to tell jokes with a completely straight face while everybody around me is dying...
In my spare time I like to get out of the city, go hiking or cycling. I have worked on cruise ships for a while and have visited many unforgettable destinations. I would love to revisit the places and share the excitement with someone special.

"Sometimes all I need is the air that I breathe and to love you"-from some 60's pop song

I love:
1. music
2. My Mom-she rocks!(Don't get the wrong impression, I live on my own...)
3.Nature and it's glorious, raw beauty
4.Places full of history and spirit...in short, anywhere in Europe for example
5.Great conversations, late night exchanges of stories and comfortable silences too
6.Planning a trip to a far away place and then discovering a paradise nearby
7.Creating a piece of music and realizing it hasn't already been written by someone else...
8.Meeting people I can learn something from.
9.Getting inspired

I dislike:

1.materialism
2.Loud, in-your-face,rude people. Also those with short attention span, perpetually bored and with no interests other than admiring their own reflection in the mirror...

3.reality tv
4. depressing neighborhoods
5.Traffic


Who am I looking for? A girl who can stimulate me intellectually. Someone who can feel at home in a pub or strolling through a gallery...Someone with a passion... She doesn't have to be a model but maybe she will have that one thing that will drive me absolutely crazy...(Like dimples for example). If you play an instrument, that's a bonus(or if you can appreciate someone who does...). There is one rule of thumb I tend to stick to though: I do not date women who weigh more than I do(190lb). In fact, subtract about 50 pounds from my weight and that's a starting point. I don't mean to offend anyone or hurt anyone's feelings. I have to be attracted to someone to consider dating the person. I've been on this site for a while and have been rejected many times. I guess that's the nature of on-line dating. Frankly, I wish there was an option of a video clip instead of pictures. Why can't the world be just perfect? All my pictures are current. I'm no Brad Pitt but I keep fit and I still have my hair, if that makes any difference( I don't know any more...)


And finally for those of you who actually have read this profile to the end, here's a little reward for your patience: a little joke to brighten your day:

A missionary in Africa is being chased by a huge hungry lion. Soon he finds himself in a dead end. He kneels down and begins praying, awaiting his death. To his great surprise he sees the lion on his knees beside him praying as well. With great relief he says: "oh my dear creature, I'm so glad to see you're one of us!" To which the lion replies:"shut up you idiot, I'm saying grace!"

Old but cute!

I would like to talk to you. As simple as that... You pick the venue...Anywhere is good as long as you're there with me!
