Those who met me in person will certify that I am a crazy, silly person with a zany sort of humo(u)r. I am NO LONGER single (thanks to FF's Cupid). I have one son (aged 25) who lives on his own. I used to be the chair person of the workers council in my bank which means I have a lot to talk, negotiate, fight with stupid bosses and -last not least- listen to other peoples' problems (I am well known for my "helper's syndrome"). I am a HAPPY retired person now (since March, 2007).Although German is my first lingo I prefer to chat in English. Apart from English I had classes in Latin, Russian and trained some MINIMUM Italian, Spanish, Greek for traveling. I like linguistic stuff (such as puns, limericks, poems, similarities in languages) - and brainy things in general (e.g. IQ tests). I am interested in all sorts of science research. Confession: I am a Trekkie (those who are, too, know what it means...) I love music of the world (Greek, Celtic,...) and I am a chorister in a well known choir in Austria. I avoid smoking areas and smokers (allergy), I dislike grouchy people and those with prejudices. Long, long ago I was member in National Team in 1971 during European Championship (Volleyball), nowadays I do some hiking, little table tennis (difficult sport for a single person, tho....). I am a passionate traveler but I am more the nature person (visiting National Parks) than the city walker. A journey through India in March 2003 made me start liking vegetarian food (none the less I have no objections against a nice BBQ). I visited UK, USA quite frequently, once Australia and India. Highlights of my journeys are meeting my chat friends all over the world.
My Ideal Person:
Ok, here's a revised version: I am not looking for any kind of relationship - as I found a wonderful British man who recently relocated to my place. Friendship with people all over the world would be fine.....a chin wag with preferably bright, open minded and quick witted persons in chat room is always welcome.
Favorite films:
Lawrence of Arabia
Favorite musicians or bands:
Roger Whittacker, Simon&Garfunkel, Joan Baez, Johnny Cash
