I have a job, I read books and I love brilliant conversations.
I'm looking for a woman who may be bit shy and might be wondering if that solid, kind-hearted guy is out there.
If that sounds good, I invite you to read on.

I'm a well-read, educated and intelligent guy. I have a charming, off-beat sense of humor and I love meeting people with a similar take on life. I can be sweetly sensitive to the unspoken needs of those around me and I can also have a great time poking fun at people who take themselves too seriously.

Physical fitness is important to me. I love endurance / distance swimming, cycling, I've run a few races in the past and I'd like to get back into whitewater kayaking soon. I believe in a good balance between socializing and private time. I love energetic conversations with interesting people. I don't spend time with people who are greedy, negative or unstable.

I love the outdoors and I'd like to find a person who enjoys getting away from the city to go check out funny little towns or cross-country skiing in K-country. I prefer to live a thoughtful lifestyle where I produce more than I consume and I have the flexibility to be generous to people who appreciate me for being thoughtful and fun. I can be arrogant and selective when I feel the need to be so, but I place more value on a person's heart than their headshot. Intelligence and education are far sexier than a pretty face with an undeveloped mind.

A little baggage is to be understood, it makes us human. But I don't engage people who are addicted to toxic drama, those who are shallow narcissists or are looking for someone to join them in their destructive habits. If you are any of these three things, you should probably skip to the next profile.

I like britcoms much better than sitcoms
(If you haven't seen The IT Crowd, Peep Show or Snuff Box, you owe it to yourself to check them out; they are some of the most ingenious examples of comedy writing out there.)
Foreign films over Hollywood
Classical over Country
Frank Sinatra over classic rock
books over television
Spaghetti Westerns by Sergio Leone
and I love the feeling of putting on new socks,
a super close shave,
and the expansive sensation of being close to someone I adore.

Now I don't know whether you've enjoyed my details. So just imagine taking a second to have a little fun and send me a message. And best of luck to all of you out there.

For a first meeting I like to keep it informal and comfortable. I'd make it a chance to have some stimulating conversation over a cup of tea in a quiet shop. That way I can get a sense of what kind of a person you are without other noise making it difficult to communicate. If there is chemistry, it will be a beautiful reaction.
