Bonsoir,

[lilibel.livejournal.com]

Name: Isabel (Lili, Isa, Izzy, Lizzy, ...)

Age: 24ish

Location: Paris, France

How do you identify?: As a queer loving lesbian who just tries to be herself.

Interests/hobbies: Reading, writing, baking, cooking, watching movies, watching tvshows, painting, (badly) drawing, spending way too much hours on the internet, hiking, watching rugby/tennis/handball on tv or live, sleeping, going to the theater, chatting the night away with friends

Favourite books: Her Lover (Albert Cohen), Thursday Next's adventure (Jasper Fforde), Wuthering Heights (Emily Brontë), Secret Garden (Frances H. Burnett), Daddy-Long-Legs (Jean Webster), Middlesex (Jeffrey Eugenides), Thresold (Sara Douglass), a good Mills & Boon (or Harlequin), anything Jennifer Cruisie ...

Favourite films: Avalon, Ghost Dog, Luna Papa, Dirty Dancing, Layer Cake, Secretary, Jab We Met, Jason Bourne's trilogy, Sleeping Beauty, La Belle et La Bête, any epic movie made in China

Favourite music: I don't have favorites, I have periods. But I do know I don't really like most of the rap music.

What would you like to send/receive?: I can send books in french, write letters in french/english, small care-packages, and if you are a cooker who wanna exchange recipes, that would be terribly fabulous. As for what to receive, letter for sure, pictures, and I also enjoy little bits and pieces (nothing cut from any human body, mind you) from abroad. 

Who would you like to send and receive mail from?: Anyone who feel they might bring me something. It's quite wide as a description, but I'm not picky. Also, I speak fluent french and english (second language) and have a very shaky german.

What countries would you like to receive mail from and send to?: From anywhere in the world. And I can send letters (anywhere in the world) and packages (anywhere as long as it's not too expensive to ship)

Anything that you would particularly NOT like to receive?: Avoid cinnamon at all cost. My life depends on it. That and body parts and anything remotely illegal.

What would be in your dream letter or package?: a hand written letter, a picture taken from your window, some trinklet found at the market (earrings, necklace, random thing which use is still unknown, ...), some tea, some of your favorite music (or at least recommendations), a notebook, a book. Little things that makes life worthwhile.

Anything else you'd like to add?: I just had my last exam ever. It's just so good to say it. And if you are in Paris, I'm there until december, so feel free to drop a line.

I love your dress! What sort of cooking/baking do you like?

Thanks :)

I like any kind of baking. Lacking of an oven in my numerous student flats, I have to wait to go back to my parents when I wanna bake. I had a huge cookies period. Now, I'm more into cakes and the like. When it come to cooking, I like to test different ways to make my pasta look like something better than pasta and I like to try recipes I have seen my mum do for years. Overall, I like to bake/cook thngs that have a homey feeling.
