I'm more of a Bridget Jones than a Belle De Jour!
In my book The Girlfriend Experience read about how I ended up working as an escort, what my parents, family and friends think, and my exciting, scary, fun, embarrassing dates in my warts and all, frank, honest, insightful book about my experiences!

I was born in 1975, daughter of a navigator in the navy and school teacher. I'm the black sheep and the eldest of 4 children. Born and bred in Derbyshire in a little countryside village, I never really fitted in.
I was always a bit wild and a bit different. After leaving school at 16 I had 3 years of college and university of which my heart wasn't really in. Leaving an unfinished Fashion design degree I briefly had a fortunate position as a Graphic designer until 3 months later the company went bust.
After then I did various low paid jobs, until I settled as a travel agent for 3 years. Being too honest I knew I was destined to never progress in the company and by the time I was 22 I knew I wanted to take a gamble and do something wild. Working in a travel agent booking holidays for other people that I couldn't afford myself made me realise I wanted to travel, and it wasn't going to happen as much as I wanted it to even through my job.
Looking through the Stage magazine I decided I would become a dancer and my plan was to travel to Japan. In the end my friend and I initially went to Belgium. After 3 months I returned home with health problems that had me out of work for a year. Once back on my feet I knew that dancing was no longer an option but I didn't want to go back to a 9-5 so I took a gamble and ventured into the world of escorting. I found I enjoyed it, was good at it, and it gave me the excitement, money, travel and lifestyle I craved.
I have always worked for myself and not for agencies, and I set up my business in 2000. I became very well known in the escort world within a few months, for taking pride in my business and my unique, genuine GFE service. I have over 50 published positive reviews on the internet from gentlemen I spent time with over the years. I worked successfully as a high class escort travelling worldwide and specialising in The Girlfriend Experience (longer dates) for 9 years, before my book The Girlfriend Experience was published June 2009 by John Blake Publishing.
My escorting days are over and I would now like to write more for both books and magazines, do some TV presenting and also work as an agony aunt offering relationship advice. Ultimately I'd like my own column in a magazine. I'm in the process of writing my next book 'Why Husbands Stray'.
I currently work as a dating coach for men. For more information please check out http://www.rebeccadakin.com
