   Valentijn's Blurbs
About me:
I am a Master of the Arts called Archaeology with a specialisation in the archaeology of the American contintent, with a focus on Northern Mexico. I haven't bothered with that side of the planet at all since my graduation, though, but I've been happy enough over here in the Netherlands. In my current really nice job I'm archiving data from Dutch archaeological projects; making the data durable and accessible. Furthermore, I've got many interests, great friends, a perfect girlfriend; my life is fantastic. Love to write, play guitar, listen to music, play games and have other indulgences in decadence.
Who I'd like to meet:
Stephen Fry, Simon Pegg, Paul Simon, actors/actresses from the A-Team, Buffy, Angel, Firefly... though I'm not sure what to say to them. I already did get to talk to Ian McCulloch and Joseph Arthur and both are as nice in person as they are magnificent artists.

Hello mister,
I was wondering if your shiny new place was available for two crazy, tour addicted German gals during one or two nights of "Summer Darkness" in August? ;)
I guess I'll see you this Saturday!
Hope we'll have beach party weather!!! So long, Chrissy
