Interests

I like directing plays, birthdays, learning new words, flying to Europe, speaking German, talking to random people in Waitrose to find out where their accents are from, European boys (especially my boyfriend), power-reading, listening to music and foreign radio, the news and current affairs, debating, the etymology of words, learning to drive, make-up, fashion, going for walks and learning new languages



(Apologies for the ticker's poor grammar; I don't think it speaks German very well.)
