I'm Jody from England. Happy and open person who likes the simple things in life, like watching the sunset it a beautiful place! I was born in Burton-upon-Trent, Staffordshire, and have lived all my life in the South Derbyshire (apart from when I've lived away from home for work). I love Derbyshire and the local areas, from the famous "Dovedale" in the Peak District, to my local river Dove and all the great views around it. I love holistic health, but also love great tasting food so this slows down my health mission (I used to weigh 31 stone). I don't smoke, I only drink on special celebrations. I believe in God (but I'm not a perfect Christian). I have a teenage daughter from my previous partner (when my life was very different!), and she lives with her Mum in the South West of England. I am confident and out going for my work, but the real me is quiet in my personal life. I have worked in various different industries (health club, hotel, TV, radio, railway and communications) getting senior positions and being very successful. I love relaxing with friends at the beach or by a river, then out at restaurants or nights in. I like to indulge in luxury sometimes, but also like to experience real life with real people and what ever comes with it. I'm very flexible and adaptable to the people I am around, I learnt this while working in Egypt for 10 years. My favourite place in Egypt is the Upper Egypt villages - by the river Nile - this is where I have experienced with my eyes the purpose of life, to love people.
