In Her Own Words
About her
I appreciate the arts in general, music in paricular; I enjoy visiting the opera, singing and playing chamber music.
I love walks in the countryside and exploring foreign cultures.
I'm a retired private tutor, instilled with my own love of learning; I read widely.
About her ideal match
Looking for a culture-buddy, walking-companion, travel-partner, best friend, soulmate all in one.
...a gentleman, who never keeps a lady waiting.
...a thinker, open-minded in every sense, who'll discuss anything but agree to differ
...a lover of the English language, with a wry sense of humour.
Essential - genuinely free
Preferably - local, no pets
Deal-breaker - smoker
