I am 49 years old with 2 adult children living in NZ, ages 22 & 20. I enjoy keeping fit and healthy. I have taken this year off from teaching (16 years of Working with 11-13 year olds) to go travelling and to explore new countries. Have just recently been on a tour with 28 other people around the British Isles for 23 days. I am now wanting to visit more countries in Europe for the next couple months before heading back to London and then back to NZ. I am easy going and always happy. I am looking forward to meeting new people and sharing a lot with them.
