I spent some months in Iceland and Norway during Navy service and the classic women I met there changed my outlook on life and male/female relationships.

When I got out of the Navy in 1963, I returned to college and got a degree in Scandinavian Studies, minor business admin. I returned to Norway for graduate studies at the Univ of Oslo from 1973-1975. During the summers I traveled to Germany for an immersion language program at a Goethe Institute in the Bavarian Alps near Munich. I spent weekends traveling to Austria for the music festivals etc in Salzburg.

After returning I worked for a small machinery company in Minneapolis but returned to Europe every year on vacation and later on business as a sales manager.

I married at 40 to a 14 year younger woman and had three sons before we divorced after 15 years-that was 17 years ago. Now I'm starting a second life with my sons no longer dependent on me. I'm retired but save for trips to Europe.I spent 7 weeks 2011 with my 3 sons in Europe, 2013 11 weeks S Europe and 2014 6 weeks in Ireland, to Poland March 15 -May2 ,2015. I may move to a a Greek island or Turkey as it's very affordable to live in a culture I consider much superior to US retirement areas.

Open to every kind of person.I grew up as the oldest son with 3 youngersisters ,learned to be self reliant by doing "woman's work" scrubbing floors with a rag and bucket, washing clothes,butchering, cooking, picking weeds, raising chickens for eggs and meat. Some of my favorite foods include sushi, beef tartar with a raw egg, aged cheeses and raw vegetables. I'm not afraid of or embarrassed by the female anatomy or fluids in close proximity!
I'm trying 3-4 different internet dating/sex services and without immediate results.I'm keeping an open mind
