About me
I'm a natural born optomist. I see the best in everyone and everything. Come into my world and see how good it is in here. I'm easy going, laid back, fun, generous, thoughtful and I'm also a bit of a romantic. I left London in September and spent 7 months travelling. I love to travel and I’ve spent 5 years working abroad in Mainland Europe and in Australia. I enjoy life, and new experiences (I’ll try anything once) and am looking to find someone who enjoys life too. I love going out but you can’t beat a night in with a DVD and a bottle of red wine. If you're good fun, have a sense of humour, enjoy life and want to live it to the full. Someone who can make me laugh and doesn't mind laughing at themselves then get in touch.

My attitude
- Jobs&WorkingI work to live not live to work. I like the freedom of working for myself, contracting, not having to get involved in office politics. Contracting gives me the freedom to work when I want and take extended holidays when I want.
- MoneyI'm happy with what I have and now I'm just looking to enjoy it.
- PoliticsI enjoy a good discussion about things that are real. The state of our country, the state of other countries. Ideas and beliefs. I have strong opinions but they can be changed by someone who can put forward a good case for the other side.
