I like all things antiquated, being nostalgic, and living vicariously through strangers and fictional characters. I hate mushrooms, my height, and when my thread gets tangled into knots during binding projects. I also spend a lot of time wishing blanket forts were practical. I want to get to know each and every one of you, so don't hesitate to send me a message.

I love foreign currency and that is the main thing I collect right now. Whenever I go out of the country I make sure to save a few notes and coins and I bother all my friends who go on trips to bring me back a few coins.
