About Me:

I am a researcher living in Scotland with a passion for nature.

I love talking to friends, but we all seem to be dotted  around the world these days :S

I also love to laugh and talk nonsense or put the world, life the universe and everything to the test, it's all good : )

Requests:

I'd like to meet people with similar interests and experiences to share.

I like to chat about most things, history, art, current affairs, music, the environment.​

I am fairly liberal so politics are okay, just nothing too extreme.

I am very happy in a relationship​, so I am not looking for anything in that regards. 

But I am in a long distance relationship​ so it would be really great to hear from other girls who are perhaps in a similar position.

I'd also like to meet people from anywhere in the world, I love to travel and to learn about other cultures and countries. Mas, especialment​e Brasileiros,​ Quero enseio minha lingua por favor : )

Language Exchange Requests:

I have a teaching English as a foreign language certificate.​
I have visited Brazil many times over the last 8 years, but as I have been away from the country lately, I miss speaking Portuguese and really want to get back into it

Interests, Hobbies, etc.:

I love the outdoors, walking, climbing hills, mountain biking, running, horse riding and playing tennis.

I care about the environment and try to do my bit.

Favorite Music:

Foo Fighters, Green Day, Amy MacDonald, Simon and Garfunkel, Stevie Wonder, Seth Lakeman, John Mayer, Dave Matthews, Samba, Dance, Black Eyed Peas, Sugarbabes, Buffalo Springfield all sorts really

Favorite Movies:

I like funny movies mostly, especially Will Ferrell movies like Anchorman and Blades of Glory, Spinal Tap, Austin Powers.

I also love Brazilian films like O Homem do Ano, Abril despedacado,​ Cidade de Deus, Centro do Brasil etc.

Favorite Books:

Far from the Madding crowd, Thomas Hardy
100 Years of Solitude, Gabriel Garcia Marquez
The Painted Veil, Somerset Maugham

Favorite Quotes:

..Grant me the serenity
To accept the things I cannot change,
Courage to change the things I can,
And wisdom to know the difference
----
A little learning is a dangerous thing
Alexander Pope

Hello again!! Oh, well, I found the photo on the internet, to be honest! I didn't take it myself. But I just LOVE the sea and love this photo... I live in West Germany, near the borders to The Netherlands and to Belgium. Pretty far from Switzerland ;o). Where does your partner live, may I ask?? Is he in Brazil? Take care always!! Rebecca

Hi Ginger,

Our website is www.bikehash​.com

I have cut and pasted the following:

we are the 'hash house harriers', a loosely knit internationa​l group with chapters in every major u.s. city and 164 countries around the world. a typical hash involves two members (hares) leaving a pre-arranged​ meeting point with a fifteen minute lead. using flour thrown from a backpack the two (hares) mark a trail through woods, tracks, roads and trails for the 'pack' to follow in an effort to catch them before they reach the ending spot where the beer is hidden!! to get there you have to follow the trail the 'hares' have marked. the whole concept is based on the old english game of "hare and hounds"​. the trail is typically 10-15 miles in length and covers a wide variety of terrain. the 'lost hares society hash house harriers (LostH3)' is a local chapter in and around the brevard county florida area. there are no membership fees to join. if you are interested simply show up at one of the hashes. our hashes are on bikes (mountain bikes). we meet every other sunday in the afternoon at 2.00pm somewhere in or around brevard county.

We are doing one on Sunday that is close to my house so I can ride there which is good.  This is total BLAST!!!   Let me know if you have any questions...​.Keep in touch!!

Mike
