In Her Own Words
About her
Aged 21 I relocated from London to Northern Italy, where I lived for 30 years of my life.
Returned to the UK more than a decade ago. A strange journey that’s brought me to where I am now. An observer fascinated by human nature, cultures and what defines us.
I still work and luckily birth dates are not mandatory on CVs! Makes all the difference and nobody, so far, has questioned my mental capacity - Not intentionally making any references to what’s going on in the US. Oh, I might add my colleagues haven’t a clue.
My interests lean towards the arts. I spend hours looking at beautiful architecture from all over the world, fabrics, antics, paintings and anything to do with design. Fortunate to have had my own jewellery business in Italy and I do miss it.
I am not an adrenaline seeker, but that does not rule out having fun! Does it ? I am well travelled; India, Southeast Asia, Western Australia, Morocco, Europe ( France, Italy, Austria, Croatia, Greece, Spain…) and there’s so much more to explore. Maybe the vibrant exotic city of Istanbul with its domes and minarets. Or Barcelona known for its friendly vibe and unique Gaudi architecture. Then, yes, back to my beloved Italy.
My friends say I am arty, intelligent and fun to be with. I do enjoy my own company and I can always hug my cat if I carve affection - He’s a stray and puts up with it, which kind of sums it up.
I am told I have good dress sense (I designed clothes for a while), but equally comfortable to slouch around in jeans. Physically fit for my age and I do look after myself.
I think I am ready for a change again, and open to whatever that might bring.
About her ideal match
At this stage of my life, the most important requisite is a good sense of humour that stems from life experience. Wise enough never take yourself too seriously. Maybe a little self-deprecating but that’s part of your charm.
Intelligent, a listener, good communicator and relishes good conversation. Always objective and sees the wider picture. Perhaps you play an instrument, have a creative passion of some kind, a similar sensitivity that brings us together
You take pride in your appearance, but a little quirky and unconventional. Physically in shape.
