ABOUT ME

My friends say I'm a lot like Daria (the cartoon from MTV).
I'm a graphic designer and I collect cans, vintage instruction manuals for household appliances and antiques.
I love meeting people from different countries and cultural backgrounds.
I looove graphic design and everything that has something to do with it.
I like to play card games.I like to paint my nails green or blue.
I like filling in the profile blanks on the sites I have accounts on :)

Now I live in Breda, The Netherlands, where I am studying for my Master in Graphic Design. I've lived in Cluj-Napoca, Romania when I was studying for my Bachelor and I also lived in Rennes, France for about 5 months two years ago, which was absolutely great and I'm sad it only lasted that long. I've traveled around most of Europe but my dream is to go backpcking around Asia :)
