Meet a woman from West Hollywood, United States. Well, I assume you have seen my pictures which are 4 years ago to recent. And, I really am 55 years old. I refuse to lie about my age and appreciate if you would do the same. As you can ascertain, I can dress up or dress down. I can be elegant and sophisticated feminine and romantic and/or I can be riding a Buzkhashi horse, at full gallop, on the Steppes in Afghanistan and even down on my hands and knees planting flowers and veggies, covered in dirt. I also love to build and make things.
I am the daughter of a diplomat, half French/Breton and half American of German, Scottish and Cree Indian descent. I am cultured and well-traveled, speak several languages, and am at ease in most places and situations.
I have LIVED in Chile, Ecuador and Peru (eight years in all), Morrocco, Iran, Afghanistan (before the revolution and Soviet invasion), Rome, Paris, Malta, Laguna Beach, Newport Beach, Milan, and now Los Angeles/West Hollywood.
I am looking for a serious, long term and monogomous relationship with a gentleman who is intelligent, cultured, educated, well-mannered and refined, well-traveled, great sense of humor, curious about life and open-minded. He must be warm, passionate, adventurous, romantic, compassionate, responsible, and especially, a friend.
I have two children who live on their own in Los Angeles, and a half breed: German Shepherd/Golden Labrador, who lives with me. My Siamese Cat lives part time with my Aunts and part time with me. Would love to have horses, again. I absolutely love animals . My family and friends are important to me and I want someone who is open to that. I love to entertain, cook for friends and spend vacations discovering new places and revisiting the old ones.
I love to do things together, share what I know and learn from someone who is willing to share his knowledge. I am very ecclectic, original and even quite goofy at times. I love humour and laugh. It has been often said that I have "a wicked sense of humour". I would like to find a gentleman who is exactly that: a gentleman. A man who is noble at heart, honest, monogamous, fun-loving and funny, true and truthful (in every sense of the word), not afraid to show his feelings, hence affectionate, also likes to converse even if we don't agree (an exchange of ideas is healthy and educational).......... and always respectful...............Noblesse Oblige!
Although it's lovely to receive winks, I prefer to receive, and answer, a message.
Thank you for taking the time to read my profile. Wishing you the best of luck in all your endeavours!
