Welcome to my Blog. This is my little home away from home. It’s the corner of the internet that I get to babble away as well as share the lovely things I see on my travels.
I am a vintage nut. I love all things 30’s, 40’s, 50’s and recently all things 20’s and early 60’s basically its safe to say I’m a vintage lush!
I love the music, the atmosphere but most importantly the people I have discovered that also share the same passions.
Random facts
1. I live in South Korea.
This is still new to me but in Feb 2013 I made the giant leap and moved
to the other side of the world. I am originally from South Wales and
have lived in Manchester and London since I left university. I love London with a passion but the pull to travel became too much.
2. My degree is in Animation. Although I’m a teacher in Korea my passion and what I will return to without a doubt is animation. I’ve wanted to be an animator since I was 7 . I worked in the industry for 5 years after uni but decided that if I didn’t make use of all these traveler visas before I was 30 I’d
always kick myself. Drawing and animation are still a passion. A good
animated film gets my imagination running at 500 miles an hour.
3. My
middle name use to be Danger. As of this year I am no longer referred
to as Tania Lorraine Danger Vincent but when I was 21 my housemates
forged my signature and changed my name by deed poll. It was a fantastic
thing to have attached to my name for a while but unfortunately I didn’t renew it. Luckily for me they choose Danger. For a while they were going to get rid of my whole name and just call me ‘Tits McGee’!
4. I love popcorn. I love it! American cinema popcorn is my favorite food. I miss it out here in Korea
but they have an alright alternative. I will one day buy an old circus
popcorn machine for my house. This might be because the Cinema is one of
my favourite places to be (this may play into the fact i can eat
popcorn in the dark) but i love films.old and new and the cinema lets me
turn my brainbox off and relax
5. When I was 12 I lived in Saudi Arabia.
Its completely random but I was there for almost two years. My family
lived on a compound and we saw some pretty strange things. I saw some
pretty weird things and I’m glad I did it.
6. I
hate Jelly Beans. I feel I may be the only person on the planet that
does but I Hate them. Texture, taste, smell, just everything about them.
I realize that people love them and I understand that but they have
fast become my arch enemy over the years. Any sweet that is gritty and
comes in fish flavor is not a friend of mine
7.
I love RETRO/vintage GLAMOUR!!! its a secret fetish of mine. Stockings,
lovely ladies curls and red lipstick. it all combines to a winner. If I
had the confidence (or the talent) i'd be a burlesque/cabaret star.
8. The Muppets are easily the greatest inventions of all time.
My mum (one of the greatest woman on the planet) loves them and luckily introduced me to them at an early age.
Who doesn't love a Snuffleupagus!!!
9. Tattoo's!!! they are an addiction and I want more. More I say!
I have two little ones now but I might become a walking doodle pad if i get the chance. Living in Korea that doesn't allow Tattoo's has made the urge to have them even stronger.
10. This year I finally started Roller Derby! I've wanted to for years and i'm loving every second of it.
