Why should you get to know carchick?

Fun to be with, outgoing, friendly, passionate, interesting, bright, attractive, flirtatious, hard working, capable, all round great girl! What's not to like?

I'm fortunate to love what I do, and it's important part of my life. I travel a lot for my living, but to wonderful places, great hotels and I can usually take a partner. So it would help if you want to come with me occasionally. I love seeing the world - both home and away, and love to explore. I hate feeling like I've wasted my time doing nothing. Having said that I also enjoy a lazy day at home occasionally, pottering about, or seeing friends, or just cooking up a great meal and enjoying good conversation around the fire. But if your idea of a fun Saturday night is watching the usual drivel on TV, then I'm not the one for you. I'd rather be out to dinner, seeing friends, going to the cinema, or doing something different etc.

I live in a great village and enjoy my life. I'm fortunate to have superb friends and family, who I see regularly. I can't see myself moving back to a city, and I enjoy seeing the changing seasons and being outside. I also love property and have recently finished doing up my house. I'd love a bigger, longer term project now. And I'm pretty handy at DIY to boot.

I love animals and would love to one day have a dog and horses again.

I'm prepared to give most things a go, except bungey jumping and parachuting (sorry - too great a sense of self preservation!). And whilst I don't mind watching the odd bit of sport, you won't see me cheering you on every weekend at the side lines. Fine if that's your thing as long as it's also not every weekend. I'm independent and happy doing my own thing too - but not all the time. It's lovely to have someone to share the majority of life with.

She describes her ideal match thus:

Clearly someone where the chemistry and attraction is mutual is a good start point. And trustworthy, honest, open, chatty, interesting and interested in the things, places and people around them.

A love of travel is important - I travel quite a bit for a living and would dearly love that special someone to come with me occasionally. If you like classic/vintage cars then even better - but I'm not a petrol head.

I'd love to meet someone who enjoys getting out and about, weekends away, being quite active and someone who has 'drive' and motivation. You should also be able to, and enjoy, skiing - can't go without my trips to the mountains. And a general love of the Alps and Africa would be an advantage!

You must be outgoing, fun to be with (I will not endure endless TV dinners), bright, helpful and thoughtful, enjoy being sociable, and good at banter. Basically just an all round really great guy: I don't think that's asking too much? Oh, and flowers occasionally are always a bonus. I'm still a good old-fashioned girl at heart.
