In Her Own Words
About her
I’ll try and describe myself in 7; in no particular order…..
genuine, thoughtful, positive, intelligent, astute, articulate and a loyal friend.
My favourite things to do include; coffee in a nice cafe (preferably but not necessarily with a view), lunch in the country, dinner with a good wine, an antique fair, a concert, the theatre, art galleries, museums (with a gift shop), a spa, a walk in the sun (or any other weather actually), a beach in winter, a road trip. Not an exhaustive list at all because I like most things.
My interests involve science, interior design, current affairs, the arts, literature and creativity. I have a collection of hobbies that I would be happy to share. I am an enthusiastic cook and enjoy a swim. I am young in outlook, spirit and style. I feel that life is short and needs to be lived, hopefully with the right person.
About her ideal match
I would love to meet that special human who is kind and caring with a relaxed and positive attitude to life. Mutual and equal support is what I am looking for. A sense of humour is important to me, as is a desire for adventure and new experiences. At the risk of sounding clichéd I love to travel, in the UK and abroad, and it would be great to meet someone who enjoys the same.
My photos are current. The dog’s not mine but I can always borrow her!
