I am here for Friends

About Me

'FAQ for the L.I.L': Originally born in Neuquen, Argentina and moved to Australia 16 years ago. Currently 21 and a self confessed music lover of many fields in particular all forms of heavy metal. I love Egypt - Ahkenaten and Hatshepsut being examples of my favourite Egyptian Kings/Queens. I currently attend Uni where I am studying a communications degree (specialising in journalism) and work part time as a swim instructor, music reviewer and sports journalist. I've recently returned from Beijing where I worked as a flash quote reporter for Table Tennis, Martial Arts (WuShu) and Football! In that time I managed to meet so many amazing people that have become such a big part of my life as well as gain an incredible experience that I hope will help my future prospects as a journalist. I also got to get up close to many amazing athletes including one of my favourites, Lionel Messi. But basically, the best people I met were those I worked and lived with every day I was there and I want to thank them for sharing such a great experience with me. I will always remember my 2 months in Beijing as the best trip of the year!..

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

I would love to meet musical genius Mr. Steven Wilson - easily my favourite musician of this generation. If it were possible to travel into the past I would love to meet William Shakespeare, Aleister Crowley, Anton LaVey and other controversial figures like them. I would also love to meet my favourite novelist Anne Rice and my favourite music personalities of which there are plenty! Oh and if Aragorn or King Leonidas were real characters I would love to meet them too!I have met some incredible people during my life, most of which have been friends for a long time, while others who are new to my life. I don't have a huge amount of friends so the ones that are there I care about very much. I hope our friendship can last an eternity.
