In Her Own Words
About her
Quietly confident, funny, kind, considerate and empathetic ; open minded and comfortable in my own skin. I enjoy a good conversation/ debate, and believe I am a good listener. I am very grounded, quite driven and prone to random acts of spontaneity. I love reading in the sun .
I don't go to the gym, ski or jump out of planes but I do love the coast for swimming, sailing, canoeing, and enjoy long country and coastal walks with my now sadly ageing Labrador. I enjoy wandering through cities for the buzz of street life and just watching the world go by from a café or restaurant. I'm really into cooking food , especially from different cultures, and growing plants and veg .
I have a light touch on life and living. I am an
avid radio 4 and radio 6 listener, and love live music, small festivals, current affairs, contemporary fine art, galleries, museums, camping, airbnb's and I have just bought a campervan. I am currently planning a road trip through the UK and France ,aiming to end up at Anselm Kieffers extraordinary studio. I am a professional fine artist, which is both a lifelong career and a passion.If you don't like visiting galleries we are unlikely to get on.
I'm interested in lots of things, ranging from consciousness through to how to make perfect sourdough. I'm off to the Hay on Wye festival in May to listen to Professor Penrose and dance in the music tents. Would be so lovely to meet a like minded, but definitely not the same as me, type of person of wide ranging interests and an appreciation of fine wines plus the ability to discern who makes the best flavoured crisps .
About her ideal match
Looking for that, so far, elusive person with whom there is an immediate and strong sense of connection, fun , mutual attraction, common ground, and friendship, and which hopefully builds into an ultimately lasting relationship .
Hoping to meet someone who has taken the path less well trodden....outdoorsy, active, into travel ( UK and Europe) and Fine Art would be very welcome, but, perhaps that's not necessary. In the end it's whether there's that all important, but highly elusive ' spark' on first
meeting that just might carry us both forward. I'm looking for my last love, the one that makes all other loves irrelevant.
