In Her Own Words
About her
I’m a warm, intelligent,retired woman;I was a secondary school English teacher for many years, who loves to read, socialise, ramble with friends, through woods or galleries. I love the theatre, cinema, restaurants, nosing through markets, historical buildings and I appreciate different experiences through travel; I would love to travel in Italy particularly. I also work with a charity several times a week which I’ve found rewarding and fun as I’ve made some lovely friends.I enjoy witty conversation, good humour, a love of animals and a generally enquiring mind. I still intend to see and learn more about the world but would love to share the adventures with someone special!
About her ideal match
I would love to meet an open minded, intelligent, kind man, who laughs easily, is still curious about the world and feels a passion for life. You should relish an adventure but equally enjoy a good book, a night in doing a crossword, watching a tv drama or simply staring at the stars!!
