CURRENT MISSION

To create life - not endure it.

ABOUT ME

I was born in West London to the sound of my father's brass band rehearsing - it was an Army brass band and so I moved around England every 3 years until I was 16 then I left school and home and continued to move around every 3 years! But this seems to have made me, pretty much, most of the time, easy going and relaxed. A peacelover with a wicked sense of humour! I'm not sporty - more like a slow snail. Meeting new people is always a pleasure - I am a humanitarian at heart and everyone is a potential friend. I am a very sociable loner! I am open and curious. I oscillate between town and country - I need both - country for the peace and town for the people. I have worked in cafe's, bookshops, youth hostels, delicatessen's, chip shops, offices....I have lived in Ireland and England and now I am on the continent. I love Guinness. I love coffee though coffee in France is extremely strong and it makes me a little crazy.

PHILOSOPHY

Create life.
