Description
hello!
my Name is Toni
I am a mature female with an open mind and young heart :)
I'm tired of the rat race and believe in living life to the fullest! I love meeting genuine, friendly souls and animals through travel! I can put my hand to most things and am a willing, hard worker
I have knowledge of graphic design and community organising. I've spent the past 20 years teaching, supporting, mentoring and empowering people/children of all ages and capabilities, through sports, social integration organisations and charities.
I have a degree in design and many years of advocating for others, including through vulnerability and trauma and find creativity benefits and aids recovery and brings communities together.
I love cooking for and with people, enjoy good food and great company. I would love to learn about you, your culture and language. I am not interested in the tourist perspective.
I am a people person with a big heart and great with kids and animals! I have stories to share, skills to teach and passion to show on my travels. As a former world champion I am happy to teach my knowledge of sport along the way.Interests

I am open minded and fun to be around. I absolutely love animals, nature and meeting new people, learn about our differences and culture. I love to read, write poetry, hike, cycle and surf, albeit quite new to the latter. I am a free spirit that is tired of the rat race in search of similar souls to share, create and expand experiences with. Willing to learn new skills and share my own and meet amazingly genuine souls.
