Prinsessan

Hi!

My name is Kristina and I live in Lund, Sweden. I work as a mentor for students with ADHD. It is a very rewarding job. It is not full time, so I am looking for another job as well.

I live in a studio flat with balcony. Regarding decorating at home I like white and different shades of brown. Keeping things in order isn´t really for me. My home is a creative chaos with lots of projects going on at the same time.

My favourite colour is pink. My full alter ego is Prinsessan Rosa af Kexchoklad, which in English is Princess Pink of Chocolatebiscuit.

My mother tounge is Swedish, but I speak English and Dutch too. I understand Danish, Norwegian, German and some French and Afrikaans. Language is a big source of joy for me. I like playing with words and is looking for some one to play Scrabble with.

Synesthesia - yep, I got it! It is an extra dimension to life that I really enjoy. Maybe I am not alone here at swap-bot with this wonderful thing?

I have been crafting since I was i child. Older generations in the family taught me some basics, and as a teenager I went to a school to learn even more. You can never stop developing as a craftster, as you learn more with experience and new techniques.

One of my aunts says - When you craft, you rest in your hands. I think it is a nice way of describing the feeling of total concentration during the creative process.

I listen a lot to Rammstein, Mustasch, Metallica and Deep Purple. Other appreciated artists are Jim Croce, Barbro Hörberg, Mike Oldfield among others.

I read very much. Reading before I go to sleep is very relaxing. I like horror and crime, but also feel-good-stories. Favourite authors are Stieg Larsson, Stephen King, John Ajvide Lindqvist, Anna Gavalda and K Arne Blom.

My favourite movie is Priscilla - Queen of the desert.

I love Big Bang Theory, Frasier, CSI and Efterlyst.

My favourite crafts are sewing, crocheting, card making and beads. At the moment I am into sewing. I just got my sewing machine fixed by a friend. Love you, Lars, for bringing Mathias back to life! Yes, the name of my sewing machine is Mathias, even though he officially is a Husqvarna 105 Electronic.
