*********************************************************** Hi Everyone - Have finally added some holiday snaps - Enjoy *********************************************************** Hi Guys, I'm 32 but feel I'm 20, I love having fun and I love my friends - the 2 often go well together. I am single by choice and loving it but if someone special came along I wouldn't think twice about giving up singledom, but, I'm at a pretty fussy stage in my life and they'd have to be truly special. I love animals, they are innocents in a world of cruelty and I spend a lot of my time helping, supporting and campaigning for animal rights. They need a voice, I have one - match made in heaven. I have a great job which lets me travel often and I do - yay!!! and I would jump at the opportunity to live and work overseas again (lived in Vancouver, Canada for 3yrs). Sydney rocks my world but it will always be here. I'm incredibly easy going and have a great but sometimes 'youthful' sense of humour- you like the way I put that!!. I like silly jokes, funny stories and laughing until there are tears - the good ones of course. Family Guy usually brings that out in me and to my surprise so has Chuck Norris!?! ;-) I am who I am and I believe in what I believe in. No one is going to change that but I wont judge you, I'll accept you for who you are and I'll listen to what you have to say. If you are a friend on this page then I think you are pretty great. Thanks :-) ***********************************************************
