I recently retired and now have time to make long visits to far-away places with very different cultures. Would be lovely to have a traveling companion and partner who is also interested in having new adventures and experiencing other peoples and countries. My interests in doing so would be multi-dimensional -- serving, learning, spiritual, and just being a tourist. I am interested in being with people (men and women) who want to understand what is going on in the world around them and who want to make a difference at whatever level they can contribute. They are curious, peaceful, compassionate, kind, non-judgemental and they don't take themselves all that seriously. They ask lots of questions, seldom have the answers, and listen deeply. They laugh often and easily and tell a great story. They would love good books, good music, good wine and sidewalk cafes.
