In Her Own Words
About her
I’m someone who lives life with a smile and a sense of adventure. Youthful, positive, and curious by nature, I love discovering new places—whether that’s through travel, beautiful architecture, or inspiring interiors. Exploring the world, near or far, keeps me energized and full of wonder.
I’m passionate about good conversation, shared over delicious food and a glass of wine with friends. I enjoy a lifestyle that balances the vibrancy of city life with the calm and beauty of the countryside. Music, dancing, and live performances light me up—there’s something about rhythm, energy, and connection that never gets old.
Keeping active and fit is important to me—I like to stay energized for whatever comes next. I’ve had a rich and interesting life so far, both personally and professionally, and I believe there’s still so much more to enjoy and experience.
About her ideal match
I’d love to meet someone who is warm, kind, and emotionally intelligent—with a youthful spirit and a big heart, have a zest for life, keeps fit, dresses well and smells gorgeous. Loves to travel and enjoy music that stirs the soul. A generous nature, an open mind, and maybe even a slightly unconventional streak would be a welcome match for me.
You’re someone who values connection, conversation, and shared experiences. Whether it's a weekend escape, a night of live music and dancing, Art and culture or simply enjoying the moment together, you bring joy and curiosity to life.
If that sounds like you, I’d love to hear from you.
