CURRENT MISSION

Mission objective? That sounds a bit scary and secret-spy-like.

ABOUT ME

I am not a natural blonde - let's get that out of the way first. Shiny things catch my eye. I love traveling (Oh, what a surprise!). I play bass and sing in a punk band, but that is something that A/I wasn't expecting. And B/You wouldn't expect either. I design for a living and for fun - which is a nice combination, to enjoy what you do after doing it for so many years. I am a very creative cook, but that's mainly because I'm really bad at following directions. I get lost a lot - but this has led me to wonderous things I never would have found otherwise. And will never find again, unfortunately.

PHILOSOPHY

Ooo. That's deep. Old enough to act mature, but young enough to still be stupid. I think that kinda works!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I dunno - I'm new here!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

No official couchsurfing. Yet. However, I have slept in many spare rooms and couches and floors and the like. Have hosted a few people.

Interests

Didn't I just do that? Silversmithing, design, jewellery, books, Macs, blah blah blah blah.

Music, Movies, and Books

Everything by Christopher Fowler, Joe E Lansdale. Last of the Really Great Whangdoodles by Julie Edwards.
Moviewise - Valley Girl, Lost in Translation, Shawn of the Dead, From Dusk til Dawn, Harold and Maude, Amelie, and all those silly old american teen movies.
Musicwise - well, I like MY band, obviously. And rockabilly and psychobilly and, well, pretty much everything in between. Or around. Except hip hop. Nope, definitely don't like that.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Just one? I lived in Russia for about a year before that big ole coup happened back in '91. I told my friends 'Hey - if you are unhappy about stuff, do something!' then I left. And look what happened. Yep. That was me.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach how to make a mean cocktail. As in good. Not one that spits back at you. I can learn.. well, a lot. And share? Yes, I'll share my cocktail recipes and stuff. If you're nice.

Countries I’ve Lived In

Belgium, Netherlands, Russian Federation, Spain, United Kingdom, United States
