About me

I am a cheerful person who strives to do their best any any task that is given to me. I am 52 but do not feel my age and I am quite strong for a female (I have been weight training since 1998).

Preferred location

Born in Croatia (we immigrated to Canada when I was 4). I am also fluent in Croatian. We had to speak Croatian at home and my father taught us to read and write.
Went to College for Graphic Design. I love art and doing crafts and I have always been creative. I even used to design and sew some of my own clothes when I was younger.
Very curious and inquisitive by nature, so I love learn and try new things.
Energetic (I hate sitting around) and fairly strong compared to most women. I have been weight training since 2000 and I still go to the gym 4 to 6 days a week.
I am quite handy for a female (I take after my father). I prefer to try and fix or build things myself rather than to pay or ask someone else to do it for me.
Nature and animal lover. Sadly where I live in Canada the town has been rapidly growing and the farms, woods and fields I remember when I was younger are quickly disappearing and the wildlife is struggling to survive.
Easygoing, friendly, kind, considerate and fun-loving. I get along with everyone.
Patient and understanding, so I believe I am would be good at teaching. I have trained many new employees throughout the years and they all have told me I was very good teacher.
P.S.
I have an International driving licence but have always driven only automatic automobiles, so I would need someone to teach me how to drive using a manual/standard transmission.
