Would you class yourself as a day or night person? What’s your idea of the perfect night/day out?
A night person in the process of transforming itself into a morning person. Working on my stuff, watching a movie, going out with friends.
Best book ever read?
I was thinking about novels but I ended up with the book Burton on Burton which is about the filmmaker and animator Tim Burton. As a fan, I loved to read about the making-process of his films, to see sketches of the characters and backgrounds and everything!
Favourite film of all time?
This is also a hard one! Mr Nobody by Jaco Van Dormael. No words to describe it

From blues to jazz to electronic

Chocolates
Dream house: rural retreat or urban dwelling? Where would it be, what would it be like?
Caravan! To be able to move around. Or a house next to the sea: one window facing the sunset, another the sunrise and telescopes on the roof.
If you could pick anyone at all (alive or dead) to go out for the evening with, who would it be?
Someone from the Paleolithic period. Maybe it would be difficult to communicate verbally, but I would observe his/her behaviour
If the world is ending in 24 hours what would you do?
Call friends and family, write some final words on a piece of paper and then find a mountain or a hill to see the end
What is your greatest fear?
To not be able to use my hands
Tell me a joke…
Not good at jokes
