In Her Own Words
About Her
I am an independent and creative woman. I love making things, reading, quiet spaces in the mountains and spending time with a few good friends. I've been single for a few years, after relocating to Cape Town and feel ready for a new relationship.
About Her Ideal Match
I'm looking for new friends, especially to nurture and sustain the queer and lesbian side of myself. I already have a circle of friends in Cape Town because I studied in the city, but this is a time of my life when new friendships are important. I am also ready for romance - I would love to get to know someone who enjoys rediscovering the world around her.
My job mostly involves teaching and writing, and I love meeting up with people who do different things in terms of work. If you love cosmopolitan spaces we have something in common. Also, if you enjoy the sound of the waves and wind in the grass, in quiet places high in the mountains or veld. I am looking for a woman to share my life with who is inquisitive about life and cares about issues of justice. I love embarking on creative ventures together with others.
