I'm a friendly person who loves to laugh! I'm a retired secretary, and live with my husband and dog. We have no children. I like to spend my time crocheting, reading, learning to play the violin, sewing, doing yoga, cooking, and bicycling. I'm thinking that I might try to grow a vegetable garden next year. I'm not a world traveler, but enjoy learning about world cultures through writing to penfriends. I'd like to learn about your country's music and food, and maybe swap recipes. My favorite season is autumn. I love a day with cool temperatures, and sometimes even like the rain!
