Lucy Viv-Ica

Life's a garden, dig it!

About Me

Some things I love: Hanging out with my friends but also love lots of down time at home, live bands/shows etc, going to the movies, swimming (lap pool and open water), gut busting laughter, comedy, stimulating and interesting conversation, the smell of the sea and frangipani flowers, walking in the rain (not afraid to get my hair wet!), the Opera. When time permits, volunteer work. Me: I am fun, motivated, driven, passionate and have a great sense of humour. I currently work full-time, study part-time, I am also a very part-time therapist and I am slowly setting up my own business. On here to meet new and interesting people to hang out with in Sydney and write to around the globe and perhaps one day visit and hang out in your city. ****Looking for a swim buddy for the occasional ocean swim (even short swims), safety in numbers, especially when I am alone 200m from shore and I get attacked by bluebottles - O.K, I didn't get attacked, I swam into them HEADFIRST!! Accidentally of course - true story!!
