About me
I am a well-travelled woman “of a certain age.” I like quiet, peaceful places in beautiful nature by the sea or the mountains. But I also like many aspects of city life, such as musical events, dance, coffee houses, walking the streets, meeting local people and travellers, and learning about the basic, everyday life and concerns of local people. I am also an artist so am always intereted in seeing local art and meeting artists. I travel on a budget so simple, but clean, safe accommodation is suficient. Bottom line: the joys of travel, meeting all kinds of people, experiencing the wonders of different cultures is the juice of life.Recent activity
