About her
Update since my profile was written a little while back! I do a lot more locally since covid and my career has diversified into fitness. I love playing at pub music jams with friends locally. Most recent pics are music and fitness.
Thanks to my international roots, people usually think I have come from somewhere quite exotic, though I actually grew up in a small mining town in the Midlands. I'm still very fond of the country but having lived in many places I've grown to love city life too. I enjoy going out socializing, meeting new people and dancing esp. Latin and recently started belly dance. I keep fit and like trying new sports - tennis and yoga are my recent discoveries, and I'd love to try some martial arts, maybe capoeira. I'm inspired by musical people esp. guitarists, and hearing live music. I enjoy international company, French and Spanish conversation / social groups, cultural events, learning languages - currently attempting Brazilian Portuguese (well phonetically, with brother-in-law!). I help a Latin American charity that organizes cultural, dance and music events, which is fun. Most of my friends tend to have an international outlook - probably due to where we've met, not obligatory!
I've lived abroad including a few years working in Latin America which is fascinating and will probably always be drawn back there, though still have many places yet to discover.. Quite settled into enjoying London life these past few years and happy to remain here for now / long term (who knows?). Although, (despite growing up in the furthest point possible from any coastline) I have a great passion for the sea - I once lived by the sea in Spain which was a beautiful experience - and would love to be near it again, somewhere.. Right now I enjoy visiting friends around UK, discovering new places and appreciating what London has to offer. Am open to moving abroad again in future, probably short-term but again who knows? Life's often so unexpected and anything could happen, that's sometimes part of the fun!
About her ideal match
Friendship, communication and understanding are important. Sharing some common interests, ideas, sense of humour whilst being open to learning from your differences. I get on well with people who are open-minded, realistic, sociable, enjoy going out, won't mind trying something new (maybe salsa if you don't..), take an interest in what's going on in the world, and who appreciate important things - making time for those close to you, lingering over good food, conversation, coffee..
My truly ideal man might also be an enthusiastic dancer and be able to lead in salsa (and others), play guitar or piano and sing (helpful for Xmas with family..), speak a few languages including French and Spanish, maybe Portuguese or Italian too, an animal lover - cats and big dogs especially, sporty and ideally an excellent (and patient) tennis player, enjoy international environments and culture - ie socially, music, films, dance, French food fairs, Latin music festivals in the parks over summer, the Young Diplomats in London group's parties in some posh hotel (I worked at an Embassy for years) etc..
An ideal of course, everyone can be beautiful in their own way, whatever their passions in life.
