CURRENT MISSION

I'm being made redundant in a week's time and going to take this opportunity to travel the world for a year or so...so busy planning my trip!!

ABOUT ME

Well - what shall I say!! I'm friendly, smiley individual that likes meeting up with friends as well as new people.
I like to learn what people do, what they've been up to, places they went to... I like talking but mainly listening as I found that people always have interesting stories to tell.
I'm very active - I enjoy walking in the hills of Wales and Scotland, go swimming every week and is a keen tennis player (I love tennis!). I also like skiing - such a nice feeling being in the mountain and meeting lots of different people on the slopes.

I'm being made redundant and this is giving me such a brilliant opportunity to do something that I wanted to do for so long and couldn't - travelling for a year or so.
I would like to discover a few places around the globe...not only all the sites but how people live and learn about new cultures!
I would also like to learn things along the way such as scuba diving, sky diving, cooking and tasting new cuisine (I love food - I'm French after all!)...

PHILOSOPHY

My personal philosophy: not sure that I have a specific one but I try not to judge people ("don't judge a book by its cover") and help whoever I can.
Small actions can have big impacts.
I'm a great believer that a smile doesn't cost anything but can be so rewarding when the other person smile back!
