CURRENT MISSION

Install a nice new bedroom suite for my daughter & take her on holiday!

ABOUT ME

I'm UK born & bred, but I live in France. I'm on my own alot, & as its always more fun to be able to share I'm just looking for some company. People tell me that I'm a smiley and optimistic person - I guess that depends on my mood though! I do get bored easily, but I dont hide it, I prefer to excuse myself and leave, than hold out and feel frustrated so I like having my car with me to be able to decide what and when and where. I'm highly independant and know my mind, I think I listen well to others too. Canada in summer 2007 to visit my grandmother (recently deceased) & also CS was good for me, I dont feel quite as self-centered now (when you are on your own, you tend to get a little morbid, and think only of yourself.) Oh, & I am desperately single & hate it! I have a little girl born summer 2010, she is lovely & smiley & quiet & playful & TALKATIVE :)

PHILOSOPHY

Y.F.S and S.A.D - work that one out :)

Musica, film e libri

Most Johnny Depp films; Tom Hank's films; Eclectic French comedy films (ex. Louis De Funès...)

HardKor juska la Mort! And anything pop-rock, but I hate rap: if you want to sing, sing; if you want to talk, talk; But why talk to music???

"The Encyclopedia of Unusual Sex Practices"; Sloppy romances (holiday throw-away reading!! LOL)

Una cosa incredibile che ho fatto

Sunset on the Pyramids in Egypt (I was only 14yrs old!)
Parascending & landing on skis. Deep sea diving in the Turkish Mediteranean sea. Still too many things to see, do, experience - need company for that, its lonely otherwise

Insegna, impara, condividi

I'm bilingual French-English. I can eventually rent out my appartment in Lyon, France (1-bedroom, big lounge, private terrasse and parking space, 10mins walk from Part Dieu station) but for a correct price - someone in there already until September 2011. Otherwise couch available in Toulouse. I want to (re-)learn German. I love cooking, entertaining etc.

Andorra, Canada, Egypt, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Israel, Monaco, Netherlands, Portugal, Spain, Tunisia, Turkey, United States

Paesi in cui ho vissuto

France, United Kingdom
