Hello! I am currently living a quiet life with my teenage daughter, a dog, and a cat. I’m in between jobs at the moment, having worked for many years in financial services. I was widowed in 2023, which has changed my life in many ways, but I still believe in meaningful connections and a good conversation.I’m an introvert by nature, a good listener, and someone who opens up more once trust and familiarity grow. I love reading, letter writing, crochet, gardening, and listening to music — simple things that bring a lot of peace. I have a special love for the UK and visit whenever I can.
