| About me: | | PLAYING AGE RANGE 45 -55yrs. I am an energetic woman with a healthy lust for life, hence my friends say I look much younger than my age! I am a very creative person with an absolute passion for performance, this includes singing, dancing, acting and comedy. I adore children and animals, and enjoy swimming, scuba diving, cycling, driving, ice skating, rollerblading, yoga, meditation, hiking and gym. I also play guitar and am currently learning the flute. I have a degree in graphic design and hold qualifications in complementary medicine.
I hold a full driving licence (clean) |
