About Me

After the swap I am currently in (Lyric Journal 2, ends November 30th 2010) I WILL BE ABSENT from Swap-bot for a while. RL taking its toll - I am moving house, switching jobs and that's just the main things that are changing. I will be too busy to swap!

Hello! I'm a 27-year old female from Holland who is still sort of starting out as a crafter. I began crocheting about 1,5 years ago and have already participated in my first crafts fair, but I'm hoping to broaden my horizon and meet new crafting friends here.

Favorite Music

Pearl Jam, Alice in Chains, Beatles, John Lennon (solo), the Frames, the Swell Season, Presidents of the USA, Ben Harper, cello rock, Janis Joplin, Jethro Tull, musical soundtracks (Hair, Rocky Horror, Avenue Q, etc)

Favorite Movies

Evil Dead II, The Wicker Man, Mother's Day, One Missed Call (J-horror in general, really), Cloverfield, House on Haunted Hill, Baseketball, Office Space, Almost Famous, Resevoir Dogs

Favorite Television

Doctor Who, IT Crowd, Mighty Boosh, Oz, Fort Alpha, Popular, Primeval, Star Trek (but not Enterprise), Band of Brothers, Blackadder, the Young Ones, Monty Python, Friends, Carnivale, Pushing Daisies

Favorite Books

The Picture of Dorian Gray, The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, Frankenstein, Sweeney Todd, Alice in Wonderland, the Green Flower trilogy (Dutch), Harry Potter, the Lovely Bones, anything by Terry Pratchett

Favorite Crafts

Crochet - I have been drawing, folding and crafting for a while but when my sister gave me Creepy Cute Crochet for Christmas 1,5 years ago I knew I'd found my craft. I like following patterns but also coming up with my own, especially amigurumi that has been inspired by the horror genre - but I make cutesy stuff too ;-)

Comment: Thank you I do like it. Love the Frankenstein head with words (what language?) in the background. Very cool.
Response: Thanks so much, I'm relieved that you like it :-) - the language is Dutch, I cut it out of a crime novel review, I think. Thanks again!

Comment: Thank you for the quick answer on the questionnaire! When you learn Norwegian.. Hopefully I've learned Swedish by that time too... so we can sort of understand each other! Norway seems as excellent as Sweden... I wonder why you want to move there. :) (ive never been to Sweden but i love everything about it)
Response: No problem :) I've never been to Sweden either - what started your love for the country? I love Norway - my sister lives there with her Norwegian man, so I will spend time there every now and then (Christmas holidays, f.e.). And I love languages, I'd love to be able to converse in Norwegian :))

Hello, I'm one of your partners from "Make New Swapbot Friends!" I love your musical tastes! I'm also a postcard swapper if you'd like to trade sometime, and I'm a big fan of Hello Kitty as well! I think it's great that you crochet - I would love to learn one day, especially the little cute dolls! Take care!
