In Her Own Words
About her
Some of the things that make me happy:
sitting in the garden watching the young swallows on flying practice,
walking in the countryside in the still of the evening,
the waft of scent as you weed around herbs,
discovering a book that's impossible to put down,
standing in an art exhibition deciding if I like something or not, and why,
the sociability plus hope of finding hidden treasure at a flea market or brocante, researching old and beautiful objects,
sitting with friends over good food laughing and discussing everything under the sun,
watching the coast of France getting closer and closer,
opening the shutters onto an Umbrian morning,
the satisfaction of successfully turning an idea into a print or being able to capture the feel of a place or object as a drawing.
I'm warm, sociable, realistically optimistic, considerate, practical and have a lively mind. Family and friends are important to me, but I miss having someone special in my life, someone to connect with on every level.
About her ideal match
I'm looking for a kind, thoughtful and courteous man with whom to experience the joy that a loving relationship can bring, someone with whom to laugh at life's little ironies and share the ups and downs of daily life. To enjoy shared interests, do things together and spend time with family/friends to enrich experiences, but also to have enough space to pursue separate interests - differences are refreshing.
Sharing values and appreciating each other's sense of humour is important, as is being considerate of each other.
I think that you are active, practical and have a lively and enquiring mind, and share my love of the countryside, the arts, antiques, France and Italy. I miss being able to bounce ideas around, explore thoughts, sharing the day-to-day trivia of everyday life and physical closeness, so I'm hoping that you can help me to fill this gap.
Thanks for reading this, if any of this strikes a chord with you, please send me a message and say hello, and if not, then good luck in your search.
