In Her Own Words
About her
Thinking what distinguishes me from other wonderful women.... I'm a warm, lively, curious, thinking woman, very comfortable in my own skin...
I have done some off-the-beaten track things in my life which I'll tell you about round a fire. I love a challenge, meditation was my lockdown saviour, I'm natural and sociable.
She loves: being read to, friends round for dinner, being lovingly challenged and challenging, being thrillingly honest, great conversation, art (creating my own and witnessing), kissing, philosophical musing, wild nature, a wild swim, laughing til it hurts (most recently playing charades).
I'm easy going, insatiably curious and enjoy seeing where a conversation can take us. As happy in heels and off the shoulder as I am in wellies and mud. I love mountains - I have been known to carry my bike up, to cycle down (but these days it's without a bike on the shoulder...)
Not scared of much - except shopping and Sainsbury's. Activity wise, I like walking, cycling, tennis, skiing, sailing, rounders, and I'm a culture vulture, exhibitions and the excitement of Matthew Bourne's Swan Lake with an all male troupe (jaw dropping) or anything by Punch Drunk. Look them up!
I am an artist - I don't broadcast it often, but my work has been featured in the Torygraph, Wired (now that was cool) and the BBC.
I am keen for adventure, maybe even more in my later years... feel optimistic... that the world has it's arms open for me...
My aspiration is to be eternally present (haha - ambitious, moi?) I love my moments of flow, and love my flawed human too.
All photos were taken within the last year (except the Greek village one...and the cycling).
If you are interested, please send a message you think may delight me! I do love to be delighted..... Thank you, lovely man.
If you don't have a photo, please don't contact me. Thanks.
"My great hope is to laugh as much as I cry; to get my work done and try to love somebody and have the courage to accept the love in return".

About her ideal match
My love-to-have's are: emotionally intelligent, interesting (I'll fall in love with your mind first). If you like people, that's good, I like a man to be relaxed, have a keen intelligence and a creative soul, to enjoy having fun. Let's laugh and cry...
I accept people as they are ( as I try to accept myself). I am looking for a relationship where we can both love, respect and nurture the other.
Essentials:
You're a dad - I'd like you to have children, either with or not with you.
You don't take yourself too seriously
You know what I'm talking about if I mention awareness and acceptance
Also I'm not into long texting conversations - I get bored with typing, so I prefer to have a call - if that's not you, then fine.
