Hello! What can I write to describe me? Well, I have a few interests:
- languages - especially Italian and French,
- music - singing, clarinet, and some piano,
- people - spend lots of time with family,
- animals - especially dogs and cats, see above photos for puppy photos at 6 weeks and 2 years :)
- obsession- libraries (and books!),
- money - living frugally,
- lifestyle - choosing public transport and car pooling,
- diet - vegan when I cook

MY BOOKCROSSING FRIENDS:
Welcome to my GuestMap! PLEASE MARK your location - click on the BUTTON BELOW. You can add me to your friends list and/or leave a message, if you want.
I am interested to find out which languages people BookCross in. I am a native English speaker always interested in ITALIAN and FRENCH. Also, I am on the look out for other foreign treasures (especially fiction) - but anything non-English is so hard so hard to find in Adelaide! Since internet dictionaries are so easily accessible - I'm open to just about anything. At the moment, I am nutting out Russian and Tagalog in my own time. The more languages the merrier, I think :-)
These are the places where my books have travelled to and/or from:
