Happy New Year! Let's give this a shot.

Name: monophobia (I am trying to stay anonymous in this post :)

Age: 33

I mostly post about: I am new to Dreamwidth, but have been posting in my LJ before that. Entries will be about my mundane daily life and my travel adventures. My last trip was this past November to Japan (trip of a lifetime!) and I will be posting a recap of that in the new year. I'm sure there will be the occasional rant post, I am a corporate employee after all and you know there's drama... I grew up in Germany and moved to the US in my twenties, so you will probably also read some insights and rants about Americans and Europeans alike!

My hobbies are: Reading, traveling, watching TV. Those are really my main hobbies. I mostly like thriller books, even better when they are over the top. I like non fiction as well.

My fandoms are: The OC & Gossip Girl. Always love rewatching these every now and then.

I'm looking to meet people who: are open minded. I'd love it if you are interested in conversations and give me a new perspective on things.

My posting schedule tends to be: Weekly to monthly posts. But it really depends on how busy I am. I will try to stick to at least monthly.

When I add people, my dealbreakers are: pushing beliefs on me, rudeness, discrimination, bigotry... the usual.

Before adding me, you should know: My sticky post and profile says it all really :)

OC and Gossip girl <3333 love both shows. :- )

I like thriller books as well. We have some things in common. Want to be friends?

[monophobia90]

Hello :) That sounds great! Yes, absolutely. I just granted you access.

I would like to get to know you :)
My name is Tina, I'm 35 years old, born & raised and still live in Germany so I would really be interested in your musings about the differences between live here and in the US.

I also love travelling and reading, thriller books are actually one of my favourite genres. Currently I am reading "Invisible Girl" by Lisa Jewell :)

Want to give it a try?

[monophobia90]

Hallo :) Yes I would love to have a fellow German in my circle! How are you liking Invisible Girl? I have quite a few Lisa Jewell books on my reading list but I have yet to read one of them.

[einhornmaedchen]

Awesome, I've added you back :)
So far, I like the book a lot - I am half-way through it by now and it's a page-turner for sure.

Hi there! I love that you love The OC and Gossip Girl (two of my all time favorites). I also couldn’t help but notice that you’re an Audrey Hepburn fan from your profile. Would you like to be friends?

[monophobia90]

Hello :) Yes let's be friends, this sounds like we have a few things in common!

I added you :) We don't have fandoms in common but I'm also a former LJ user who moved here, we're nearly the same age, and I'd love to hear about your travels and your thoughts on being a european who moved to the US!

I'm also planning a trip to Japan :) I'm British and was first planning it in the midst of Brexit, just before covid restrictions hit... kind of threw a spanner in the works :)

[monophobia90]

Sounds great! I just added you :)

[goblinesque]

Hi! You seem super interesting and I think we might get along (I also was on LJ before everyone moved over here last year). I also don't live in the country I grew up in haha and also love to travel. I'd love to read about your Japan trip too!

[monophobia90]

Hi! Oh my gosh, as soon as I saw your avatar and journal layout I knew I need to add you, I love Sailor Moon, brings back memories :) Just added you.

[goblinesque]

Ahhhh thank you :) Sailor Moon has so many fond memories for me too! Added you back!
