I'm funny and playful, possibly cool

I'm fairly progressive; sometimes old school:

I write on paper, I use fountain pens,

I'd still rather call than text my girlfriends.

But lost cause I'm not! Don't run away (yet)

I like live music - and parties? You bet!

I run and I swim, I read like a fiend

I'll banter with you about mise-en-scene

I'm looking to share this life with a girl

A woman of wit who’s travelled the world

If you're that lady and looking to be,

A partner in love and in mirth and glee

Drop me a line to say, "How do you do?"

I'd be most honoured to hear back from you.

Hello! Try something different again in my introduction this time, so here goes:

What are you looking for on Reddit?

Love and romance though I'm not looking to rush into anything straight away. I'd like to start off only friendly terms first so we can get to know each other better before we decide if we want to take things further.

What do you look like?

While intellectual and emotional attraction is important to me, so is physical attraction. So let's swop verified pictures after the first few messages, so we can decide whether or not to carry on the conversation.

How would you describe yourself?

If you're a fan of MBTI tests, I'm an ENFJ. Generally, I'm fairly open-minded and adventurous and I'll try anything once. Almost anything... ;) My friends and colleagues describe me as calm and patient, though I have occasional moments of spontaneity too.

What do you like doing?

I like reading, writing, films and theatre. I enjoy visits to museums or art galleries too.

I like the outdoors as well; thanks to Covid (never thought I'd say this!), I've started appreciating walking/hiking/being a tourist in my own backyard.

What are you looking for in a partner?

I’m looking for someone to go out with or come home to; someone to grow old with as we build a life together.

Traits I find attractive are the same ones I have: Kindness, humour, intelligence, emotional stability and a growth mindset.

If you have a similar affinity for films, books and the arts, that'd be great and I'm happy to share in your interests and learn from you too.

Are you for real?

Yes. LOL! We can video call or chat on the phone so we both feel comfortable before meeting up.

What’s important is the quality of conversations and whether they spark joy, fascination and wonder.

Drop me a line if this resonates with you and if you’re at the stage of meeting a lifelong lover and friend too! I'm interested to know about the best day you ever had, what you’d do if you had a million dollars, or your favourite joke.

I'll be in Da Nang, Vietnam between 22nd of December to the 30th of December, so if you'll be there too during that time, let me know! It'd be great to hang out then
