I am an American, an international financial systems consultant. In addition to the US, I have worked lived in Saudi Arabia, France, the UK, and Bosnia. I'm very well educated, with an MA in Literature and an MS in Computer Sciences. I'm obviously well-travelled and knowledgeable about cultures outside of the US.

I'm a great romantic, admiring the works of Lord Byron and F. Scott Fitzgerald. I love showing a true lady the pleasures of new places, such as Venice, Paris, Nice, and Hong Kong.

Unfortunately, life has also made me a cynic, so I'm wary of over-committment, wary of getting hurt. Twice divorced, I'm looking for someone to spend some time with and get to know. After that, who knows.

I admire intelligence in a woman in that she can discuss the world, politics, culture, and the topics of the day with me. I also very much admire a woman who is romantic enough to appreciate the beauty of a sunset over a Roman amphitheatre in Nimes, the strains of an evening hymn outside a church in Palermo, the excitement of a Saturday night in Picadilly Circus, or a quiet hotel room overlooking the Seine.
