About Me (Charlotte)

I currently work in Public Health, and my work takes me all over eingerichtet. I reside at sea most of the year which gives me the structure and routine I require. I live with my little chihuahua when I am home and enjoy frequenting the coastal areas with him for his exercise which I would like you to accompany me with.

I enjoy reading especially on Politics, Feminism and Science, so I am looking for someone with the ability to hold conversation on a variety of topics and interests.

I enjoy travelling, and I am looking to take up a new sport soon, but I haveREAT not decided on what that will be yet, so maybe you can help me research what I would like to take up wireless and give me some ideas.

I would love to attend a live music event which has always been on my “to do list” but I have always worried that I may become overwhelmed so I am hoping having a PA who can accompany me and keep me grounded will join me on my new ventures to experience more of life and the activities I have put off trying.
