Vanja *New Song*

Always happy, never satisfied...

About Me

Bio´s are boooring. Personally, I almost never read them. But for you brave people who do, here´s some info: I was born and bread in the country of free love and ABBA - Sweden. Happy childhood, lovely family and even a little cat to add to the picket fence perfection, but - add a few relationships to the mix and VIPS! (as us Swedes say) there are immediately angst-ridden stories to tell. *haha* So that´s what I do - write and sing songs about the people who´ve crossed my path. So beware! ;-) Hmmm. Now I´ve even made myself yawn... So I´ll just stop here.
*** Silly Facts ***
- I´m lethally addicted to Swedish salty liquorice, preferably Haexvraal
- I´m also the unthreatoned princess when it comes to mixing the best whiskey sours on the planet
- The song that is running on constant repeat on my iPod for the moment is "Silent Green" by Regina Lund. Perfect for candlelit evenings when you´re desperately trying to shut out the cold, the darkness and the fact that it´s the dreadful month of February...
