CURRENT MISSION

To explore both locally and further afield as much as possible.

ABOUT ME

I am mother to four grown-up sons who I like to socialise whenever possible. I have good friends who I like to travel and explore with. I enjoy picnics in the countryside or at the beach and visiting places of historical interest. I belong to a local film club which shows films from around the world. I listen to BBC Radio 4 for good balanced news, documentary programmes and excellent dramas. I like good conversation.

PHILOSOPHY

To explore local wild areas with friends and family / not shopping. To enjoy socialising with friends and family.

Music, Movies, and Books

All of John Le Carre, John Fowles and Zola. Films which make me think - not Hollywood. I love much of the music of the 60s and 70s, as well as Leonard Cohen, Amy Winehouse and Bob Dylan.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have lived for three years in Singapore, six years in Chile, one year in Paris and one year in The Netherlands.

Teach, Learn, Share

As a linguist I enjoy explaining the English language to English learners. I like to learn about other people's cultures.
