About skihippy:

I'm an Austrian girl but have lived in London, England for many years. I make a mean cup of tea now, and have in-depth knowledge of all the weather reports!

Hobbies:

Movies/cinema, listening to music (esp rock/metal), reading a good book, comedy, photography, my collection of Garfield, Asterix and Donald Duck comics, skiing, tennis, horseriding, learning foreign languages, travelling and seeing new places, nature, going for a long walk, spending time with friends, a nice lazy evening with a glass of wine and a DVD...

Favourite places:

Scandinavia and Canada, anywhere with fresh air and nature, on top of a mountain on a sunny day in winter, at home on the couch when it's raining outside, in a nice cosy pub with a glass of wine... anywhere but the tube in rush hour really :-)
