Warning: I have a fully-functional brain, and I'm not afraid to use it.

In the interests of not misleading people, I am no longer a newbie, but collarme doesn't allow name changes and I haven't yet got around to setting up a new profile. My Dom passed away in September 2011. He was a wonderful, kind, loving man who was my best friend and confidante as well as my Dom. It was a privilege to have been his sub. He proved that "dominant" and "domineering" are not synonymous, and that trust, mutual respect, compatible values and common interest are the only valid bases for any relationship. I will not forget him, or the good experiences we had together, but it is time to move on. I am independent, open-minded and hard-working, with a quirky sense of humour and a healthy dose of masochism. I enjoy a lively discussion and will often play "Devil's Advocate" just to liven things up. My free-time is split between folk music (singing and playing), reading, exercise, cooking and study. I place a high value on honesty, loyalty, courage and personal accountability, and make my day-to-day decisions on that basis. I work on cargo ships, and therefore have very limited internet access for up to several months at a time. I do make a point of answering every message that is polite and friendly; if I haven't replied to you, then either you're being rude and I've blocked you (trust me, you won't need to guess), or more likely I'm away and can't access the internet. If that's the case, you'll get an answer when I'm back in range of civilisation. With regard to language, while I do speak a few, I haven't yet had the time to master txt-spk. My responses to messages written in txt-spk may be delayed while I either post the message to a group or forum for translation into standard English, or search for a professional interpreter to assist.

What I'm looking for:

Friendship:

Friends make life worth living. I would go so far as to say that friendships are generally the most important relationships in my life. I enjoy chatting to people almost anywhere about almost anything. Because of my job, international travel is unavoidable, so if we connect at any level there's a fair chance that we'll be able to meet for a coffee and a face-to-face chat at some point.

Play partners:

I'm open to the possibility of play, but only with people with whom I have some connection; if you're not interested in taking the time for us to get to know each other, then I'm not interested in playing with you.

Relationships:

If you're looking for a doormat, I can either suggest some very good homeware stores, or alternatively I can sell you a traditional rope mat. I'm looking for a fit, healthy man in New Zealand to whom I can relate on a vanilla level in public, but who can compel my submission in private. A compatible set of moral & ethical values, a mild sadistic streak, an open mind, a sense of humour and the ability to enjoy a debate just for the hell of it will make life much easier for both of us; either a high tolerance for folk music, or a good pair of ear-plugs will help as well. I have no interest in smokers, drug-users, heavy drinkers, polyamory, or men who are cheating on their partners.
I am not interested in moving to Nigeria (or Bangladesh, or anywhere else), becoming a sex-toy or punchbag, or doing anything at all with someone I don't trust and respect, so don't bother asking.

Home

There is much discussion regarding the definition of "home" among people who travel a lot: some say that home is, "...where you live at a particular time," others that home is, "...where the heart is." I occasionally joke that home is where I left my sleeping bag.

My reality is that home is not a single place: it's defined by the people who are there and the mindset I'm in. Home can be one of any number of places, ashore or at sea, in any number of countries: home is a refuge from the world, from the pressures of work; a place to hide and recover; a place to have fun; a place to relax and be myself. The most important thing about home is that I feel safe there.

It's good to be home.

Sea Fever
by John Masefield

I must go down to the seas again, to the lonely sea and the sky,
And all I ask is a tall ship and a star to steer her by;
And the wheel's kick and the wind's song and the white sails' shaking,
And a grey mist on the sea's face, and a grey dawn breaking.

I must go down to the seas again, for the call of the running tide
Is a wild call and a clear call that may not be denied;
And all I ask is a windy day with the white clouds flying,
And the flung spray and the blown spume, and the seagulls crying.

I must go down to the seas again, to the vagrant gypsy life,
To the gull's way and the whale's way, where the wind's like a whetted knife;
And all I ask is a merry yarn from a laughing fellow-rover,
And a quiet sleep and a sweet dream when the long trip is over.

Thanks so much to everyone for making me welcome (you know who you are). I'll see you in a few months.
