About Me

I am a nurse and work in London, I am lucky enough to be doing a job I love. I have a wonderful family and although not wealthy in the financial sense I am in rich in many other ways. I have two beautiful daughters who I love beyond measure and they will blush reading this, but would not be surprised, because I often tell them. I am half Lebanese and half Polish, and often tell people that I inherited the Lebanese nose and the Polish backside! I would have liked a bit of the long legged gene as well, being only 5'4". I am a typical Cancerian being born on the 17th July, hate confrontation but can make a home anywhere. Despite the daily grumbles about inconsiderate people and psychopaths, I actually like dealing with people, and through my work have met so many good folk.

My Interests

music, classical, jazz,south American dance music. I love the female voice from Nina Simone,Ella Fitzgerald,Maria Callas,Billy Holliday,and many more. Artists like Vemeer,Breugal, Bosch,Lampicka, sculpture, any art form either created into physical form, or created in dance using the physical form. Theatre,plays,being in london I am surrounded by all of these creative things,lucky me. Greenpeace,environmental issues and those who practice what they believe in. This includes the welfare of animals and plants to stop extinction. On the whole most things interest me and would always be willing to include any new ideas brought to my attention.

I'd like to meet:

People with similar tastes. Oh and of course Vincent D`Onfrio. It`s OK because I have an understanding husband. Also if there was a way, without causing too much mayhem, it would have been nice to meet my father,and see what I gained from his genes and character.

Music:

I adore dance music, sounds that make me want to physically move. When my girls get on stage to play their music of course I am biast but hearing it is fantastic. I studied singing a few years ago, it ended up being quite intense, I never knew I was a dramatic soprano!!! Pity I stopped. Eastern music was very contagious.The velvet voices of Simone,Fitzgerald,Callas,Damingo,

Books about animals and their little secrets, such as Sharks and their amazing varieties.Crocodiles, elephants anything that reminds me they were here before me.I shall think of more later.

Heroes:

People who against all odds manage to live their lives and help others.Greenpeace fighters who battle against the giants of commercialism.Human beings who remind us that the animal kingdom needs us to help them survive our greed and murder. The silent workers who put their heart and souls into helping the unhelpable and yet continue regardless. The very few religious folk who feed the poor without judgement.
