I am young at heart, enjoy a good laugh but care about others and what happens in the world. I enjoy nature, reading, walking and talking. I love the theatre and cinema. I am semi-retired and have more time now to do the things I enjoy. I like my own company but also enjoy being with friends and meeting new people. I'm not out to search for love but open to the idea of love finding me. I think a good relationship comes from mutual respect and having a similar view of life, having your own space but enjoying eachother's company My friends say I am empathic and can see the positive in a given situation. I have started to travel more and see interesting and new places and there is also a lot of the UK that I want to explore. I like the simple things in life like having a picnic on a warm day, walking on the beach in bare feet, but also enjoy getting dressed up now and then and going somewhere really nice. I have my own home and enjoy my garden. I keep a few chickens and have two cats. I recently joined a gym and have started to go for long walks in an attempt to get fitter. I am content with my life but would like to find someone to share things with - after all 'no woman is an island'.
