I have always considered myself as a European trapped in the wrong body and in the wrong country.
Casual acquaintances often mistake me for a Chinese or Korean even if I can never stand watching a single episode of a Chinese/Korean TV drama…nevertheless, I’ve always wanted to take up Mandarin among other foreign languages.
Looking forward to travelling around the world, maybe settling in some European country to work for a game development company.
I do consider myself a voracious reader, inclined toward sci-fi and fantasy. However, I dislike Tolkien and loathe his imitators like Terry Brooks. If I’d be writing my own fantasy book, you may as well expect not a single dragon to turn up. On the other hand, I maintain an interest in Asian mythology and the occult – but thatt’s just to add fuel to the idea tank.
Rabid agnostic and technically liberal yet stridently apolitical.
Movie buff who always makes it a point to get his dose on the big screen as much as possible – nothing pisses me off more than freeloaders who are willing to settle for illegal DVD copies of movies copied off the cinema – whether here or abroad, boobing audience heads included.
Another thing which gets my goat - same freeloaders who download music through Limewire that they can get from their friendly (legit) CD shop. I also credit Limewire for breaking my dependence on the radio…haven’t been tuning in for more than a year already.
PSP gamer who’s looking forward to more wonderful titles for that console….some of my current favourites include Jeanne D’Arc and Disgaea: Afternoon of Darkness.

I love Tolkein and can tolerate his copy cats. I love him because his LOTR books were my introduction to Fantasy. I was only 12 when I discovered his dusty novels in my Dad’s bookcase. And even if i didn’t understand 30% of the words he used (I was only 12 okay) I “got” the story and fell in love with adult fantasy. Was already in love with fantasy children’s books…
sorryyy…. Im so off topic here, I just noticed that you said you didn’t like Tolkein so I just had to share my thoughts. LOLOLOL don’t mean to be antagonistic.
Thanks btw for checking in on my blog…

No need to worry…I respect fans of the Tolkienesque and their devotion to their specific worlds.
I’d like to add you to my blogroll, if you don’t mind….
