About Karla...

I'm an English language teacher, a frustrated architect, and an aspiring translator.
I enjoy reading - I'm currently reading The Lord of the Rings. The Fellowship of the Ring, and Bit of a Blur by Alex James. I'm a really slow reader, though.
I enjoy watching films. I don't have a specific genre of preference, just as I can watch a good vintage film, like Le Mépris or The End of Summer, I might as well enjoy a romantic movie, such as Two Weeks Notice or My Best Friend's Wedding. Just don't make me watch a young adults film because that's a genre I can't stand.
I love listening to music - I love bands like Oasis, The Rolling Stones, Blondie, Blur, Gorillaz, and Kasabian. I also like some Japanese singers like Yuki Saito, Hiroshi Satoh, and Tatsuro Yamashita. I adore Joe Hisaishi's music too.
I'm also into vintage stuff. I enjoy going to vintage shops and buy random old things, like cards, stickers, and pictures. Talking about vintage, I try to collect vintage anime stuff. Yeah, I'm into anime, too. Old anime. Anime I watched as a child, such as Saint Seiya, Candy Candy, Ranma 1/2, Sailor Moon, Slam Dunk, as well as old anime I've watched as an adult, like The Rose of Versailles, Evangelion, Boys Over Flowers, Maison Ikkoku, and Revolutionary Girl Utena. Also, I adore all Studio Ghibli’s films, but I must say that Howl's Moving Castle is my favourite one. I also like Satoshi Kon's films.
I love art, too. My favourite painters are Sandro Botticelli, René Magritte, Gustav Klimt, Salvador Dalí, Henri Matisse, Michelangelo, and Frida Kahlo.
I'm also into gardening, taking pictures, travelling, collaging, blogging, and writing in my journal.

I love vintage postcards, as well as postcards of famous paintings/sculptures, maps, nouvelle vague, roses, sakura, ginkgo, architecture (old buildings), 'old' anime, ukiyo-e, Studio Ghibli...

Tell me about your favourite films, music, places, paintings, experiences, your hometown/city, the postcard you're sending, lifestyle in your country, or just anything you like.
