Summary

We are looking for an active buddy for a 77 year old woman who enjoys shopping with her but is also open to a good conversation.

Detailed description

Diana is 77 years old. She would like a male or female buddy, young or older, to do fun things with and to chat with. Her daughters live a little further away and she has had no contact with them for a number of years. That saddens her a lot. She is also open about the fact that she has experienced periods of depression due to past experiences. But basically Diana is a positive person; she really enjoys the little things in life. Every Saturday she goes to the city and on sunny days she likes to go to the North Sea beach. Physical complaints sometimes make walking difficult, but a walk into town suits her well. Who wants to keep Diana company?
