I've been living alone since returning to England from spending a couple of years in Luxembourg.
I'm seeking non-romantic friendships with anyone who has, or has had an interesting or unusual life, or maybe a younger person who wants some inspiration from someone who created a bucket list many years ago, and has ticked most things off.
I enjoy travelling to anywhere that I haven't already been to.
I enjoy cooking for friends, taking them on a journey around the world with my food.
I love to try new things.
I don't mind who you are, where you are or how old you are, but tell me something about yourself and your life.
Note that I'm not looking for a wife, I'm atheist but have nothing against religion, I'm over 50 and I won't respond if you can't be bothered to introduce yourself properly, or use AI to write to me.
Hobbies:Roleplaying,Concerts,Movies. Travelling Penpal message / wishes: Hello Everyone, Hello World :)
Hmm, it is hard putting yourself 'Out there' (Well I think it is) But here goes... I'd just like to hear from people near, and far away..Sharing in life, our thoughts, our hobbies. As for me, I'm from England. I promise I'll reply to everyone who emails me, what are you waiting for?
Penpal message / wishes: Hi,male 56,from England,in a relationship,I am looking for a lady 55+ for penpal,friend,would be good if lived close,please send pic,ahe and where you from.
Penpal message / wishes: Greetings and salutations! My name is Alan. I’m a 61-year-old British gentleman living in North Wales, which is a region of the UK renowned for its beautiful scenery, rugged mountains and 13th-century castles.
I’m seeking email penpals for meaningful and thoughtful correspondence.
Just to be clear, I will not respond to the following:
• Really short, perfunctory emails. If you write at least have something to say.
• Emails written by artificial intelligence. Where is the genuine human effort?
• Requests for financial assistance or gift cards. Don’t waste your time—I’m skint!
• Inappropriate or lascivious emails. Each to their own, but I prefer more cerebral conversations.
• Ladies looking for a relationship, love, soul mate or marriage. These are almost always romance scammers.
A little more about myself: I’m an old-fashioned and easy-going person who appreciates a quiet home life. I’m single, live alone and enjoy my independence. Due to arthritis, I spend most of my time at home. Some of my interests include photography, historical buildings, computers and corresponding with email penpals. In my spare time, I enjoy watching DVDs and YouTube videos mostly related to long-form discussions, street life and urban exploration.
I’m open to discussing a wide variety of topics, ranging from the sunny and stormy days of everyday life to contemplating some of life’s greatest mysteries. That being said, I’d rather not discuss religion and I’m not here to argue about politics, geopolitics or any other contentious subjects.
I particularly enjoy thought-provoking discussions that are infused with creative and critical thought. I would like such discussions to form a regular part of our correspondence, so feel free to suggest any topics you'd like to discuss.
To start the ball rolling, here are some intriguing questions we could explore:
1. In a world dominated by CCTV, facial recognition, and other forms of digital surveillance, is privacy becoming obsolete?
2. As artificial intelligence becomes more integrated throughout societies, what are your thoughts concerning the implications of this technology?
3. Are paranormal events the result of human deception, tricks of the mind, natural phenomena or something else entirely?
4. The Fermi paradox highlights a puzzling dilemma. Given the age and vast size of the universe, intelligent extraterrestrial life should be common, yet so far we have found no evidence of alien civilisations. So amongst all this vastness, where is everyone?
5. How can we protect objective reality and truth in an age of misinformation, propaganda and subjective realities?
If any of these questions interest you, it would be fascinating to hear your perspective. I'm genuinely seeking cordial, good-faith conversations and always welcome different points of view.
Whilst I prefer communicating by email, I’m also open to online voice calls, preferably via Google Meet. These can be arranged weekly, monthly or less often. However, before considering this option, I’d rather we get to know each other first. If voice calls don’t interest you, it won’t be a problem.
I’d like to hear from good-natured ladies and gentlemen from all walks of life who are ideally over the age of 40. I don't mind if you're based in the UK or abroad. All I ask is that you're a sincere and genuine person.
I can’t promise to reply to every email, so please don’t take it personally if I don’t respond. If I reply, I typically take a few days, depending on my health and the length and depth of your email. If you tend to write long emails, please allow me a full week to reply.
Thanks for reading my advert. Peace and love to everyone.
