A library science student by day, a crime fighting tiger/girl superhero at night. Loves music, movies and literature, pop culture geekery and dark nights with candlelight. Oh, and if you're a tall, dark and handsome stranger, long walks on the beach are pretty okay too.

I live with a dog, Rocky, who likes treats and bones and things but breaks every toy I give him within half an hour.

I drink loads of tea and hot chocolate and am curiously and carefully dabbling in this arts-and-crafts thing. I've given up TV but still know how to procrastinate wholeheartedly. I like making people laugh, but my sense of humour is not necessarily for those faint of heart. I am not religious and not interested in any holidays, unless someone comes up with a memorial day for dead parrots.

I like to photograph, even though I'm not very good at it. Same applies to drawing and writing. I'm not interesting or extraordinary in any way.

If you do not receive something from me, I'd very much appreciate it if you sent me a message and let me know. I will definitely do my best to replace the lost item.

Oh my. Some examples of artists and bands I like: Alicia Keys, Tegan & Sara, Stella, Jill Scott, Erykah Badu, Lauryn Hill, Regina, Ingrid Michaelson, The Rescues, Metric, Róisín Murphy, Kelis, Lily Allen, Lupe Fiasco, The xx... and so on.

This could be a long list, but briefly: Amélie, In The Mood For Love, Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind, Fantastic Mr. Fox, Spirited Away, Secretary, Away We Go, American Beauty, Harold & Kumar movies, and just about everything by Kevin Smith

And a million others. I suck at picking favourites.

• red, purple and pink especially, but all bright colours thrill me
• stars and rainbows
• cute and cuddly animals, especially dogs and tigers
• superheroes (and villains too, I don't discriminate)
• handmade things, especially knitted and crocheted stuff is nice
• baking-related stuff
• children's books in any language (and other books too, in English preferably)
• sparkle, glitter & bling
• kitchy religious art and jewellery
• Alphonse Mucha, Gustav Klimt, Frida Kahlo
• small note cards, with or without envelopes
• candy or other snacks only available in your country (I'm not picky, the only thing I really hate is non-xylitol chewing gum)
• markers, especially Marvy LePlume in any colour (pigmented, not the II version) which are impossible to find here
• stickers (not children's)
• deco tape
• pretty journals and notebooks
• jewellery (the more colourful, plastic and kitch the better)
• moustaches
• memes

• "country" and "old-timey" stuff
• porcelain and clay figurines
• most Disney related things and over the top kawaii stuff, like Hello Kitty
• floral stuff
• fantasy related things, like witches and wizards and such
