About Me

Welcome to the blog of a wannabe polyglot. My name is Alicia, an eighteen-year-old wanderlust victim. I speak English, Indonesian, Chinese, Japanese, and Korean. I write, cook, draw, travel, write, and kid. I can't go by a day without listening to music. I go gaga over insanely cute things. Otherwise I'm just a girl trying to make the most of life.

I am:  
• Into all kinds of arts. From liberal arts (sociology, anthropology, etc.), languages, painting/drawing, photography (total amateur), 'fashion' and many others.
• Often torn between using American English (my 'accent') and British English (what I write and type in; what I was taught with in school). I'm writing my first novel in British English, however.
• A true marsupial lover. Koalas, kangaroos, wombats, you name them. <3
• Someone who began blogging to practice writing. One of my biggest dreams is to publish my very own fiction novel. I completed my first novel in 2013.
• Fond of mushrooms
• Sceptical about the reliability of leggings (excludes jeggings) used as pants
• Prone to fall in love with anime/video game characters, to the point of imagining their presence in the room
• Unable to whistle to save my life
• A lover of good food and cooking (who isn't?)
• A fan of The Avengers and Spirited Away, two of my favorite movies
• Bad at sleeping
• A frequent user of smileys and emojis :D

Et cetera.

For reading through all that randomness, give yourself a nice pat on the shoulder on my behalf :)

About the Blog

Since October 2012.

I will post about anything on this blog, but it will still focus more on travelling and languages. Every now and then a recipe post or a random rant will surface. Sometimes I will post in the languages I'm practicing too. Hopefully one day I'll be able to cringe at all the amateurish mistakes I made ;)

Although it is still lacking in many ways, I hope you have a great time reading my blog. Come back soon! :)
