I'm hoping to meet new friends with similar hopes, dreams, passions and outlook on life. I'm trying to improve my French and Spanish while starting to learn Italian and Swedish, so new friends who I could practice with would be great....as well as English speakers obviously !! I have lived and worked abroad for the most part of my life and still enjoy travelling. I recently retired from teaching at primary level but I occasionally take on private tuition as I still enjoy educating. I have a great love of music, its helped me through life. I enjoy walking in the hills with my dog.
