In Her Own Words
About her
Happy healthy, fit woman seeks similar traits in a tall, kind, well presented chap for cultural pursuits in London and brisk walks with or without your dog - hopefully you'll have one as mine died...and maybe weekends breaks and holidays too.
Having lived for several years in Italy, firstly Calabria and later Toscana has greatly influenced and widened my horizons. I view life from a different perspective and understand the difficulties that ‘outsiders’ often feel. This has enabled me to comprehend, support and empathise with disadvantaged individuals and families from a range of backgrounds during my working life.
I travel frequently in Europe to Italy - I’ve been there twice this year so far and Greece again two visits this year. My profile photo was taken in 2024 the others on holidays last year in Ithaca, Kefalonia, Matera, and eating my favourite cheese with wine in Livorno 2023.
My family includes two beautiful daughters, four wonderful grown up grandchildren and an adorable little great grandson are the most important people in my life and my best friends. I know, I am indeed, blessed.
The beautiful Irish Terrier belongs to friends.
About her ideal match
I'd like to meet an outward looking, tolerant, kind, ambitious man with integrity a dry sense of humour who enjoys sharing good food and wine eaten at home or in a restaurant. One who’ll laze on a beach, dawdle in a gallery, adore the opera, hike through the woods or dance with me in a close embrace…Anna
