In Her Own Words
About her
I’d love to meet someone on my wavelength, and enjoy the world together...there are so many places to go, or we could just enjoy being at home! I like sun on my body, sand on my feet and salt water to dive into. I like sunrise over the Mediterranean or sunset over the Aegean - or just a cold wet grey Cornish morning with a surging sea and the sound of gulls. I love a bustling Thai market, or a quiet Yorkshire hillside. I love frescos in an incense smelling church (and coffee in the square afterwards) - and so much I’ve never dreamed of...
Certainly not ready for a quiet life just yet, but I do like to have time to take in the view. I'm serious about the serious stuff, but want to have fun too! You've got to laugh...
Love wildlife and wild places, but like a bit of luxury too. Like to try new things and do things I’ve never done before. Hate heights (You are not getting me up in one of those) but like water.
I’m happy in Wellingtons walking in the countryside, or in an art gallery, at theatre or pop concert (I love live performances!) But I am also content to be at home with a good book or in the garden.
Love good food and wine - and sharing it with friends. Love to cook and be cooked for...
