| Introduction | I am a designer by profession, a wanderer in spirt, a mother who learns daily from her child. I am a recovering shopaholic--difficult given that my job entails doing research and store visits rather frequently. I am simultaneously hopeful and pessimistic for the future, not just mine, but that of the world at large. and my commentary about the topics below : Films : I love films, actually, but unfortunately have seen maybe 3 in a cinema since the bean was born. Music : Having played piano from age 4 to 22, I always believed I would have music in my life. Now, sadly, due to various circumstances in my life, I have lost touch not just with classical music, but contemporary as well. So, I have made it one of my priorities for this year to get back in tune. |
| Interests | I like painting, drawing, making things with and for the bean, as well as close friends and family. I like snowboarding, traveling, discovering new foods. I'm borderline-obsessed with cooking programmes, which are especially excellent in this country (the UK). I like music of all kinds, and highly recommend kcrw.org for anyone looking to discover some new music (although it does get a bit U.S. centric, as well as a bit world-y, if that makes sense). |

Radio wire is often used to make bird nests. What station do they listen to?
They listen to the CBeebies podcast, because the birds that matter most at the moment are the titifers, whose song signals that it's time to go to sleep.
