ABOUT ME
I'm a friendly and polite person. Very open minded, I accept and support everyone who has strong ideals about something they love, even if it's not my personal point of view.
I love talking with people from different countries, since I was a child I have a very natural curiosity about how life is in other countries, how culture influences certain social behaviours on human beings.
I am a very talkative person, who loves to hang out!
I also blog sometimes, please feel free to visit my blog and/or leave some feedback:

PHILOSOPHY

Interests
My number one passion is literature and music. I have great ties to literature because it was my course in university. I am eclectic on the music I hear, mostly I like metal, but I also love rock, some pop (80's mostly), classical music, opera, OST's and some electronic music. I am also a cinema enthusiast, mostly on european, asian and animation films. I also love to travel, alternative fashion and animals. I also love games (PS1 kind of addict!) and writing (Wrote my first fictional novel, although it has not been published yet, also write tons of poetry).

Music, Movies, and Books
I think just making a list won't help. There are so many favorites to narrow down!
We can always talk about it in person, but I can say that my all time favorites in music are Nightwish, Amaranthe, HIM, Blackmore's Night and Versailles (japanese symphonic metal band). About movies, I am a sucker for everything historical and animated, I am a big Disney geek and I love french movies, be them contemporary or historical. In the book section I am a big fan of Philippa Gregory and Juliet Marillier. I love historical fiction and fantasy fiction.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Coming to Finland. Meeting the people that are now part of my life. Seeing snow for the first time! Building a snow man! Visit Gran Canaria! Meeting my boyfriend Stuart!
Teach, Learn, Share
I am a very enthusiastic person and I like to learn about all kind of things. I might even be a bit impressionable. So, feel free to talk or teach me about something new, I will love it!
About teaching, if I start talking about english history, it's difficult for me to shut up, but don't panic, I only do it with people that have some interest in history!
