As a 69-year-old nature enthusiast living in the stunning Tasman region, I thrive on exploring the great outdoors. Whether it's hiking along picturesque trails or setting up camp under the starry skies, I'm always on the lookout for my next escapade. Cooking is another passion of mine. Love going to the Wai (river) with my dog Dougal. So enjoy sharing magic moments, with mother earth beneath my feet, or laying on the grass embracing the sun and having a lovely skinny dip after. Do enjoy giving a massage and intelligent conversations. Like quiet evenings reading or a family kind of movie, even romantic ones that bring tears to your eyes. Love kisses and cuddles. Very open minded and like to experiment in the kitchen (even the bedroom), Dougal is a ladies best friend.... Needed to retrain after a work accident and qualified with a bachelor's degree in health and well-being, counselling. I have a diverse Cultural Background so I have a deep Spiritual Nature... I am of German, Irish, English, Scottish, and being Celtic Maori also have Ancestral links with Aboriginal/Indigenous/Natives peoples from the America's. My family name also has links with Ukraine/Russia, South Africa. Once we discover Our Diverse Ancestries, Our unique abilities and hidden talents are revealed to us as a people here on Earth.  I used to be a farmer, so animals are sometimes your closet friends. I re-trained after a farming accident and now my left eye does not work as God originally intended, that is why Dougal acts as my seeing eye. I have self-published healing books and enjoy writing Spiritual scripts, rhymes, and romantic poems... Would love to share who I am with another-minded Soul, so yes chatting online is the best way of discovering each- others passions, interests and hidden desires... Ka kita ano... Means Good/God Blessings upon you in Maori. Ka pai Thanks for reading my profile... Lots of Aroha (Love) to one and all.
