About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Well conquire the world, right? Naturally....

ABOUT ME

10 random things about me:

1. I have a bf so no, I'm not seeking that type of "friends" from this site. And I'm not going to answer those "Hi wazzup" etc messages from Nigeria or wherever.
2. I used to study history of art in London, now I'm back in Helsinki.
3. I have a soft spot for second hand jewellery,
especially earrings. I feel naked without earrings.
4. I hate pickled onions more than anything in this world. Eurghhhh!
5. I don't belong to any church but I considered putting up my own religion when I was in high school.
6. I'm really impulsive. Taking a bus from London to Amsterdam on one particular Saturday felt a really good idea back then. Of course, my tutor at uni wasn't too pleased next monday when he found out I was still in some dodgy coffee shop at A'Dam.
7. I have 2 tattoos and want one more. And then one more.
8. I'm on candy strike. Since 2006.
9. My favourite place in the world is a teeny tiny island near Helsinki.
10. I learned to read when I was 4 years old. I kinda had to since my mother got tired of reading aloud the same story over and over again...
