In Her Own Words
About her
I am confident and mature but young in spirit (and looks, so I'm told). My reason for being on this site is that I have reached a stage in life where I am recalibrating based on my personal values and interests, experience of life and my dreams for the next chapter.
I am loyal and caring and have a good sense of fun. While not without my own opinions I always like to remain open-minded to different perspectives and experiences. Having travelled a fair bit and learned more languages than most, I am culturally aware, intellectually curious and always interested in the people around me. Respect for others and good manners go a long way in my rule book.
I am at my happiest cooking and wandering around farmers' markets in London and abroad (and sharing the pleasure of eating the result with others!), reading good books and watching great films - art house cinema perfect, tv dinner on the sofa a close second! Other interests include football and choral music. As you can tell, I'm an unusual mix...
About her ideal match
I am genuinely open-minded and curious, so this is a hard question to answer. I'm pragmatic and therefore I know "ideal" is not what is required for us to see something in each other that sparks an interest and may lead to an encounter. Something that may surprise us!
What I would like to share is a delight in shared interests (good food, music, literature, film, travel), exploring some of this together, and see where that takes us.
