In Her Own Words
About Her
I would love to find a companion who shares my approach to life! I like to make the most of situations whether I find myself in an overcrowded minibus taxi in Ghana, or overlooking an amazing sunset in the bush! I enjoy travelling, but not really to tourist attractions. I like to experience a country, not just look at it! I would love to find a companion who can adapt to both 5* and 2* hotels, understanding that Beach Resorts are my worst......I'd much prefer a shack on a deserted beach with friends; the road less travelled; authenticity is what I'm after!
To give you a brief idea of me, so that you can decide whether you want to respond or not: I'm told that I am quirky; I certainly like to look at things from many different perspectives. I love good humour and like to laugh. I find good literature and all things creative, stimulating and interesting. I enjoy and find most people interesting, although I can be reclusive in big cities and am daunted by great swathes of humanity although, strangely enough, I find crowded India very energising and Paris is my favourite European city! Conflicting, I know....I suppose that it all comes down to "Spirit of Place" !
About Her Ideal Match
Enjoy discovering the world and be easy-going, but reasonably organised and not needing to stick to scedules. Something wonderful off-plan may require a diversion!
Enjoy taking gourmet trips through various countries, so my companion needs to love good food and good wines, but can also be experimental and adapt to different countries foods/street food.
I'd like to meet an interesting man who enjoys cooking, travel, rugby (!) socialising, but also happy to stay in with a bottle of wine and a DVD! I'm low-maintenance and enjoy spontaneous people who are genuine and fun.
