In Her Own Words
About her
Here you have a wishful dreamer who stopped her life's work as a primary grades teacher in 2019. Planned to travel, and made it to Ireland before we got grounded temporarily. (I then homeschooled students for the next two years.)
Florida part time is my winter place. I have traveled Ireland for the past two decades, love the northern coast and got back there in May 2022. Also had time to explore Scotland a little, and now I want to see more of the UK! Message if you have any thoughts of must-see places away from the more touristy spots.
I am thankful for the world opening up once again. There are so many welcoming, friendly people out there!! I love my home in the Green Mountains of Vermont, here in New England, but thrive near the ocean and just about any body of water (no swamps). I live a fairly active life, enjoy my bike, (would love an e-bike!). Have two kayaks, love to garden, cook and bake, but am happiest sharing food prep with a friend. Prefer simple, outdoors, hiking/walking either forest or a beach, backyard fire pits, MUSIC of any kind (except rap and heavy metal). I am close to my family and my four grandsons yet I am eager to find the magic I seek in this world!
If you have a slightly more 'internal' side than just the outside part, and seek the sparkle in the eyes of another, realizing there is so much more beneath the surface, please send along a "hello". It can't hurt to exchange thoughts. Best of luck with your own search!!

About her ideal match
Would love to find someone with a positive outlook, who enjoys the outdoors, cooking, the ocean or water nearby, travel and music (maybe even dancing?). Active, healthy lifestyle a must. No tv watchers please. :)
