In His Own Words
About Him
Young-at-heart, very active retired journalist and adventurer living in the beautiful Kosi Bay area of northern KwaZulu-Natal. After decades of working across Africa, I've chosen a simpler life, building a small homestead surrounded by nature, lakes, and the ocean.
As I live in a remote part of the country, distance is naturally a factor. I'm hoping to meet a lady from Johannesburg, Durban, or the surrounding areas who enjoys friendship, good conversation, road trips, and can envision visits in both directions.
I'm minimalist and philosophical by nature, enjoy the outdoors, and find purpose in community projects. I'm independent, practical, easy-going and curious about life.
If you're looking for a genuine friendship that could naturally grow into something more, I'd be delighted to hear from you.
About His Ideal Match
My ideal match is kind, emotionally mature, independent, and comfortable in her own skin. She enjoys meaningful conversation, has a sense of adventure, and appreciates the simplicity of nature.
A good sense of humour, curiosity about life, and a desire to build a friendship are far more important to me than perfection. Distance is less important than compatibility, shared values, and enjoying each other's company.
