Several people I know are doing this so......

A daily list of things, counting down.

Day 1 - Ten random facts about yourself
Day 2 - Nine things you do every day
Day 3 - Eight things that annoy you
Day 5 - Six songs that you’re addicted to
Day 6 - Five things you can’t live without
Day 7 - Four memories you won’t forget
Day 8 - Three words you can’t go a day without
Day 9 - Two things you wish you could do
Day 10 - One person you can trust

Day 1 - Ten random facts about yourself
1.      That I’m almost 72 amazes me; never expected to live past 66
2.      I live on an island in the middle of the North Baltic Sea.
3.      I have varying degrees of fluency in 6 languages.
4.      I have days when I wish I could be beamed back to NYC. I still love that city
5.      I have changed countries 4 times: USA to Greece to England to Finland to Estonia.
6.      In the 33 years since I left America, have been back exactly once. No, I don’t miss it.
7.      I’m an Islander to the core. Virtually all the places I have lived in my adult life have been islands of some kind: Manhattan,
         Crete, England, Katajanokka in Helsinki, Saaremaa.
8.      If I had to leave Saaremaa, my dislocation of choice would be Genoa, Italy.
9.      One of my favourite things about Italian food is all the wonderful things they do with vegetables. You thought maybe I was
         going to say ‘pasta’. I’m NOT a vegetarian however.
10.  Still on food, I’m a member of the Saaremaa Artisan Food Producers and O.T.T., which translated means creating shorter
       supply chains from producer to consumer. I run workshops in the primary schools on healthy eating using local foods.
