In Her Own Words
About her
I’m an ex-international award-winning Cirque du Soliel Trapezist. Subsequently I ran a professional circus school + international performing arts agency plus organised corporate and community events for many years.
Next I became involved in renovating properties and gardens in the UK and France :)
I am generally curious so have broad interests: the arts, science, travelling, boats, nature, countryside, reading (NB book-hoarder).
I have a long-term interest in health and well-being and previously spent time volunteering for the NHS as a healthcare change-maker.
I attend talks and cultural events, various courses, l have a large garden and an allotment and grow organic.
I watch TV only @once a week (films / documentaries), I like to keep active (dance, yoga, tai chi preferred, but open to suggestions).
I have two children (now in their 20’s), I moved back to London when they went to university, my younger one (not living with me) also moved to London to study for her recently completed Masters, so I see her quite regularly.
I am self-sufficient, having a basic passive income from property so my timetable can be fairly flexible.
I enjoy socialising with people of all ages, and from different cultural backgrounds, my current female lodgers are from Italy, China and Singapore, and so we have an interesting happy international household.
For some extra income and a bit of social, I choose to do some Film/TV/Ad work, plus occasionally some teaching and I professionally chaperone children in entertainments.
I'm happy to dress up, or down and sometimes quirky for fun. Photos are from current agency ones.
My friends keep pushing me to dip my toe in the water to try online dating, so here I am, hopeful, that somewhere out there is my special person and we may connect.
Also open to meeting some interesting people as activity partners whom may become good friends.
If after reading my profile this resonates with you, then drop me an message, and share something about yourself as to why you think we should meet :)
About her ideal match
Looking for a friend then maybe something more. Someone willing to take the time to get to know me and let me know them. A man who has a generous and considerate spirit, is generally optimistic, grounded, self-aware and able to communicate openly and honestly.
Hopefully someone whom is well-read or has broad interests across the arts and sciences, enjoys good conversation, is non-judgemental and flexible to consider other points of view, enjoys sharing things that they are passionate about with others, but are are also good listeners.
Ideally, someone whom has a similar outlook on life, likes to keep physically active, recognises the importance of a bit of spontaneity and having fun, and is open to trying out new experiences together.
This by Dick Van Dyke (98), made me smile, but it's so true:
"In my 30s I exercised to look good. In my 50s to stay fit. In my 70s to stay ambulatory. In my 80's to avoid assisted living. In my 90s I'm just going it of pure defiance."
