Happily married mum of 2 adult sons, living near London, UK. I’m sociable, friendly and very interested in folklore & anthropology, history (especially classical history) and culture. I love travelling, exploring new places and meeting new people. I also enjoy theatre, art, architecture, hiking and nature. I love Asia, especially Japan, and I'm studying Japanese. I’ve worked in education, research & content production, but now I’m studying for a Master’s Degree in Folklore Studies. I had many pen pals when I was younger and made some great connections, some of which I still have today :-)
