In Her Own Words
About her
Hi. Thank you for looking!
I have a positive and forward looking outlook on life. I am excited about new opportunities, curious and interested in people and the natural world and keen to find my scrumptious special someone.
I am independent but miss having the company of a partner and would love to simply share walks and talks, hills and thrills (?) trips to see beautiful places and beautiful things, laughs and maybe a dance or two!
I love to be outdoors and, until recently, spent time everyday walking the hills with my scruffy bearded dog - I do seem to like scruffy and bearded...I do love to be on a hill or mountain top.
Of course I enjoy travel...anywhere... I enjoyed whizzing around France and Corsica as a motorcycle pillion rider - what a wonderful way to experience landscapes and architecture! Still on my list: Unexplored UK, Iceland, Vienna (now achieved and enjoyed - tick!), Norweigan Fjords, Pompeii, Skye...and lots more of Scotland.... My dream is to have a campervan!
I worked long hours in education as a teacher and senior leader, a job which required great stamina and was never boring but didn’t leave much space for a life or partner seeking. So I have walked away, relocated to a new region with new hills, explored and discovered a world outside of education and I am tentatively making my way through a new chapter - I'll tell you when I see you!
I am a glass half full person and would enjoy the company of an honest, kind, optimistic, similarly inquisitive man with the sparkle to relight my fire!
Thanks for reading. Send me a message as I would really like to hear from you but, if I am not your cup of tea, good luck with your search. Hx
About her ideal match
I’m looking for a partner, a soulmate, a friend to share my life.
I once had a long list...I know better now that it is more mysteriously about 'chemistry'. He will probably be ideal in unexpected ways.
Yet he surely will be a kind, honest, optimistic, positive, fun, interesting, inquisitive man - outdoorsy, (sometimes) get-up-and-go-ey, with some sense of adventure and heaps of sparkle.
Deal breakers: right wing political views, married, not washing (!) I need someone who will challenge and grow with me, please.....I look forward to hearing from you...Hx
