I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

I am an English girl living in Seattle, Washington. I spent most of my life in Brighton and London until meeting a young man from the States 4 years ago in Mexico and ran away to get married. I am a world traveller - I've spent a year in Africa, travelled throughout South-East Asia, the States and Europe. I'm an expert skiier, a keen sailor, an underwater scuba-diver and a french horn dabbler. Having spent more years than I care to remember studying for my masters, I finally have a job that I really enjoy, a fantastic husband, a cat, and great friends :) Life is good.

My Interests

Skiing, sailing, travelling the world, meeting new people, drinking with friends.

I'd like to meet:

Friends, people I grew up with or met along the way...

Music:

Currently I'm into the Gorrillaz. Also "Blister in the Sun" by the Violent Femmes is firmly stuck in my brain after my recent trip to Whistler with friends. Anything by Coldplay, Oasis, U2, White Stripes, Jet, Black Eyed Peas and others.

Movies:

My favourites of all time: Room with a View, Pride & Prejudice, Fight Club, The Matrix, Lord of the Rings, Shawshank Redemption, Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon. I am also strangely addicted to Bollywood films at the moment

Television:

I don't watch any! It eats your brain. Ohhh, ok - I got hooked this year by the Apprentice and the Bachelor. Terrible...

Books:

"An Introduction to ML" is an excellent read. Not necessarily for everyone though. Novels I've liked are Captain Corellis Mandolin, Amsterdam by Ian McEwan, The Time Travellers wife.
