About Me

I'm a girl from Denmark, but I've moved to the Faroe Islands - a small group of 18 islands situated in the North Atlantic, between Norway and Iceland.
I feel much more at home in the Faroes than I've ever done in Denmark - I guess it's because I have to live close to nature and mountains (I don't feel well in big cities), so this is the right place for me to live :) I live close to a river, several mountain streams, and the hills and mountains around me are just beautiful - it gives peace to my mind.
To learn more about me, read my ramblings on my blog

What Season Woman Are You?
What Kind Of Eyes Do You Have?
Moonlight You have moonlight eyes. Moonlight is the color of mystery. Your eyes symbolize your ability to see yourself as others see you. You have finesse for letting other people know what you think. You have a soothing and calming ability that you may or may not know about. You have the awesome ability to draw a person's negative energy out and replace it with a positive energy; the world needs more people like you. Some words to describe you: patient, self-controlled, perseverance, insightful, reflective, understanding, serene, and caring. Personality-Emotion Quizzes
