I won a Stylish Blogger Award! :)

And what is more, I received it from two bloggers at the same time :D

Now, to the rules of the award:

1. Thank the person that awarded you:

A huge thank you to Lorraine http://k1ns.com
and Kell http://diaryofadomesticgoddess.wordpress.com XXX

2. List 7 things about myself:

1. I used to love reading, but since I discovered audiobooks I love listening to books - because I can stitch at the same time :)
2. I grew up in a Hungarian village with Ruthenian/Rusyn heritage.
3. In my life I have learnt 8 languages: Russian, English, Finnish, and a little of Italian, German, Georgian, Polish, Estonian; and now I am learning Swedish.
4. My all time favourite actor was Paul Newman.
5. In my youth once I worked as an interpreter in the Capitol in Washington DC - just one day though. :)
6. I have travelled quite a lot, but there are still two cities I haven't seen and really would like to visit: Paris and Prague.
7. If I could start my life again, I woud learn to become a textile artist.


3. Pass the award to 15 other stylish bloggers

I hope it's OK if I don't pass it on to those friends who got it from Lorraine or Kell at the same time as me - although I love their blogs a lot. I will try and widen the circle.
