In Her Own Words
About her
Somewhat brainy, somewhat challenging, curious and then a dumb blonde at times. I’m capable and can fix things but stylish and feminine in my own way.
Nature and environmental issues are an important but I'm also concerned with world affairs and go for the occasional mind-walk.
I potter in the garden for relaxation and adore the flora that attracts the fauna. Am a beginner bridge player..American Standard
I keep fit by swimming, hiking, walking and avoiding junkie food . I adore cats, domesticated and other. But most animals too.
I love my 'job' - am the boss..ask me more if interested.
Have travelled internationally..favourites Scotland and Italy. Wish list Rwanda, Bhutan and Antarctica.
Have just located to Portugal where I now have residency. Starting a new adventure for the decade or so ahead.
My attitude to life? There is no Knowing, do unto others as you would have done unto yourself, do not take that which is not given. Try to laugh a lot. Meditate if you can. Dancing is good and so is singing but I can't do the latter.
About her ideal match
Humour (particularly a dry wit) humility, honesty and a generous spirit would be very attractive. Interesting conversation, be it day to day or more intellectually challenging would be a pleasure. I'd like to share my mind walks and my walks in nature. I keep myself fit and active so someone who can share that would be ideal. I’m looking to interact with a man who is articulate, successful and not too much of a man’s man. Someone not threatened by strong female energy. Quirky perhaps
Ultimately it will be in the chemistry.
