After five years, I thought I'd update my profile again a bit ... I have almost finished my studies of English (language & literature) and my favourite spare time activities are still listening too good music and going to live concerts - my favourite artists are Alanis Morissette, Tori Amos, Ani DiFranco, Gianna Nannini,...just to name a few. I also like to write poetry from time to time – a few of my poems have also been published in a local student magazine, as well as an article I wrote about bookcrossing and a concert review.

When it comes to reading, I am very much interested in feminist literature - two of my favourite authors are Virginia Woolf and Margaret Atwood. And after having spent an Erasmus year in the Netherlands, I sometimes try to read in Dutch, but here I am still quite a beginner. I also speak French and a little Italian and I am a fan of popular culture from the 60s, 70s and 80s (music, lifestyle, ...). Other leisure time acitvities I enjoy are growing plants (chilis, avocados, orchids, lemon plants, ...) and knitting.

Furthermore I was trying to make bookcrossing more popular among students over here, but many of them unfortunately didn't seem to care about making journal entries - like I had to notice after I released a bunch of English books at a student party a few years ago ...
