queermail | Introducing... Me. Oh, and I've met Roger Rees and he is very charming.

Hello. Newbie here :D

Name: Farah

Age: 22

Location: Perth, Australia. I'm here, studying abroad. I'm originally from somewhere else.

How do you identify?: I'm Negatively Capable.

Interests/hobbies: Music. TV. The BBC. Books. I like all sorts of things and dislike others.

Favourite books: Coin Locker Babies (by Ryu Murakami) among many, many others. I also like poetry, mainly by WB Yeats, John Keats and Dylan Thomas.

Favourite films: I quite like those directed by Peter Greenaway. Generally I'm not into films. I go to the cinema usually to spend time with someone, not for the enjoyment of the film itself. But at the same time I do accept watching films as an escape.

Favourite music: I love the Beatles. I also love Japanese rock. And definitely 80s music. And David Bowie is a god, no arguments.

What would you like to send/receive?: Postcards, letters-- something simple, quaint yet meaningful.

Who would you like to send and receive mail from?: Anyone who cares enough to make the time and effort. (Thank you).

What countries would you like to receive mail from and send to?: As the Beatles song go: Here, there and everywhere!

Anything that you would particularly NOT like to receive?: I'm a pescatarian, if that helps. But aside from that, I'm happy for anything. Oh and please don't bother with baked goods -- Australian Quarantine is terribly particular unfortunately :(

What would be in your dream letter or package?: A drawing, a doodle, something creative and artistic. Or a simple "HELLO! How are you?" on a postcard where I can reply "GOOD, AND YOU?" on another postcard. (I'm very easily amused.)

Anything else you'd like to add?: Receiving mail is a very big deal for me. Each letter or postcard addressed to authenticates my existence. It's a bit sad, but that's how I truly feel. I love snail mail.

Thanks, and I hope to hear from someone soon...? :)
