I have a bubbly and friendly personality with common sense. I enjoy caring and see this not just as a job but a vocation taking on extra courses.
My interests include cooking, preserving, studying, listening to music, history, socialising with family and friends, narrow boating, travel, tv especially quiz shows and yes being a kiwi rugby.
