CURRENT MISSION

To keep laughing so hard i'm scared i'll pee and to end each day with at least one story to tell the grandkids!

ABOUT ME

Instagram - gypsy_pirate

Hmmmm. What to tell you?!....erm, People have described me as a 'catalyst to a party' and a 'purveyor of fun' :) ha, quite a big expectation to live up to...but be warned...this is usually the result of a glass of wine or two!! ;)

My pastimes include laughing, having fun and making other people laugh.i have just recently become a certified laughter yoga leader too so would love to laugh for a living too! live with my lovely fella Bill on our narrow boat , Sally Cinnamon, in Lancashire.

Between us we love cycling, motorbiking, foraging, home brewing, banter with friends, playing, making friends, cooking, festivals, wild swimming , exploring in our camper van, dancing, singing loudly (and badly!) playing board games, guitar, rock climbing, roller derby, crochet, reading, most imortantly, the great outdoors!

I dislike being bored, I like learning, I am a Jacqueline of all trades but a queen of none! I’m not very good at sitting still. Bill is a truly handy and charming man to have around, he's a lover of life and adventure and has plenty of tales to tell!

we're both very easy going , calm, peaceful people and i would like to think that we will be a breeze to get on with. Were not judgemental and enjoy the company of people from all walks of life and want to meet as many people as we can from many walks of life .I love finding people's quirks and am a loyal friend. I consider myself to be a respectful guest .we LOVE music and spend most of our time listening to it,

caring, sharing adventurers with a mission to exerience all things new!

PHILOSOPHY

I like to focus on the lighter side of life in even the worst situations, if you can't laugh, then there's a chance you might have to cry...and that's no fun at all!! (not allowed!)

life is short and you only get one of them, this is particularly poignant seeing as i have just lost a close friend at 25 years of age...so live each day as if it was your last ....

"This is your life and it's ending one minute at a time."
