About Me

I'm a Finn, born in the 60'ies. I love nature, languages, different cultures, picture handling with Photoshop, animals, arts... Always eager to learn more about your culture if you're from abroad.

Candies: I like many kinds of candies, but I dislike cola flavour and filled pralines.

I also love postcards, any style or theme will do, I'm not picky but please send them written on and stamped. Homemade cards also welcome, and they can be sent in an envelope :)

A nice cup of tea warms me in cold winter evenings. I'm not very fond of plain green tea though, or very flowery taste. In the mornings I get my eyes open with a couple of mugs of coffee with milk.

I love to knit and receive something knitted too. My shoe size is 39 European - 7 American - 6 1/2 British. I really appreciate handcrafts, so anything selfmade would be nice if you're into crafts (e.g. beading, knitting, cross stitch, papercrafts...)

Of course I'm happy to receive anything you decide to send me, I like nice surprises :)

Favorite Music

All kinds, except some rap & some jazz. My profile @ last.fm is http://www.last.fm/user/irenek5/

Favorite Movies

Gone with the wind, Schindler's list, Piano, Forrest Gump...

Favorite Television

ER, documentaries, wildlife, history

Favorite Crafts

Cross stitching, knitting, collage & card making. I like natural, earthy colours, bold colours and autumn colours. I dislike neon colours, light pastels and too much glitter.
