Given the choice, I would have my life over again -have no regrets. A positive outlOok on life, Accept life`s curved balls - enjoy the colourful tapestry of life. I am generally a happy person... oh, I am very organized.
I love the outdoors, walking, cycling, running, swimming... a failry new ex-pat from South Africa. I arrived in Sept 2008 - would love to make a few good friends. Its not that easy in a strange country.

Am failry well travelled - have had a very interesting life. Dont mind my own company and am rarely bored...
I love music - when walking or running, my ipod is plugged in, and you will probably hear me singing( or trying to )..I love nature.. am very aware of my surroundings and its beauty and colour.
I love dogs - I dont have one here in the UK but have a very loyal Daschund waiting for me to return one day... I do miss her an awful lot.
I have a seaside home back in SA - all of 100 metres from the surf. My utopia that I rarely took for granted.
I do enjoy my own company - there is a difference between being alone and being lonely. A good friend is most definately missing - it might be the very person reading this... who knows.
