In Her Own Words
About her
I want to travel more, work less, be less serious and make more friends. I can offer empathy, tolerance, kindness and companionship - I love good company, family and friends, being out, theatre music, film, travel, walking on the beach especially at dawn, hilarity but also contemplation and deep relaxation. Fairly attractive, politically and socially aware, intrepid. Quirky, somewhat arty (art, ceramics & antiques). Youthful in looks and outlook, and open to adventures in the rest of my life. Busy professionally but flexibly for now and not averse to a distance friendship.
I love living in South Africa - I'm committed to the country and people but would also enjoy a south/north lifestyle with someone interested in similar.
I can offer kindness, tolerance, companionship, a gentle but independent spirit and a strong urge to travel and enjoy life
My kids are grown - they don't need me but quite like me around. But they have their lives and I want more in mine!
About her ideal match
Mostly kind and compassionate. He should be positive and not too staid or set in his ways - not conservative, but open minded and tolerant. Someone happy to share chores who doesn't expect a woman to live in the kitchen - I'd adore someone who can cook. I'd appreciate some one who accepts that life is formative and shapes us - who has led an active and interesting life and wants to continue in the same way. A romantic streak is appealing - funny would be wonderful - but kindness and loyalty are vital. A travel/exploring companion would be great. I can offer the same in return.
