Here you go Karen:

What's your fave colour?

That is most definitely blue, I've loved it since I was a small kid, I think it has to do with the Smurfs , it was my favourite cartoon back then. I've also infected my parents with it, so now our balcony and our garage have been painted blue so even our neighbours direct their visitors to their house by the "house with the blue balcony". I find it cute and original as people usually use orange or yellow to paint their houses, so it stands out

Fave food?

Oh, there are several dishes, but I would have to go with the boring pancakes I really enjoyed Asian food, with all those noodles and vegetables, while I was over there though, didn't think before I'd like spicy food so much but you never know

Fave book you've read?

After all these years, it's still Gone with the wind although I read it while I was in high school and it's been erm years since then There is just something about the way the author describes the characters and the time that everything comes alive in front of you, at least that's what happened to me. And knowing that she used Clark Gable as the base for Rhett also helped with the visualisations

Last book you read?

It would have to be the tour book on Vietnam (I hope that counts ). I didn't want to carry too much with me on holiday and there there were hardly places where you could get books to buy, so this was a nice enough read. I very much recommend Eyewitness Travel guidebooks, they are truly thorough and also point you to things Lonely Planet guidebooks may not imo. And now I am reading the book I am currently translating but don't think I am entitled to tell you what it is just yet I bought a book at the Munich railway station but haven't gotten to reading that one yet.

If you could live anywhere in the world, where would it be?

To be honest, I actually quite like it where I am now, it's a great neighbourhood close to the capital. I can't imagine living in the city centre, I like to get out of it whenever I am there for a while. Although I could also imagine living in Berlin, albeit I don't really know how that would look like since I've only been there twice for a month and have never worked there (the German labour market is still closed for Slovenia unfortunately). But the general atmosphere, openess and diversity of the city in terms of population, architecture, the cultural scene, cuisine, etc. is something that definitely appeals to me.

If you could visit any country in the world, where would it be?

There was a time when I would say Ireland but unfortunately there is not much to do in Strandhill apart from surfing and perhaps going to Kian and Jodi's bar It would still however be nice to have a nice holiday home somewhere around those places

The next country or better put part of the country as it is not a country in itself that I'd like to visit, if I'd get the chance, is Tibet. I would however need to be much fitter to be able to walk around those high mountains, plus the situation there changes from one day to another. My family also sends money to a local school there and our first "adopted" child has already graduated from medical school (traditional Tibetan medicine) and now we've started supporting a girl. I would love to visit the school somedayand perhaps also meet the kids we've supported, I think it would be a lovely gesture.
