Ahhhh…I’ve been MEMED (by Mary McKnight at RSS Pieces)!!!!

For those of you that don’t know what a meme is: It’s a thoughtstream carried from one person to another, or, to be more precise, a “unit of cultural information transferable from one mind to the other,” so says Wikipedia. Basically, it’s the blogging equivalent of a chain letter. The cool thing about blogging is that the meme can be tracked. Entire websites are devoted to doing just that. Some memes, however, are deliberate…sort of a social game to build community and engender relationships. I hope this Meme does that with the real estate blogging community.

Here are 5 things you may not know about me:

  1. I’ve grown up in a family of handymen and am a devout do-it-yourselfer. I love fixing just about everything in a home (except dry-wall and plumbing).
  2. I would love to retire in Greece and run a hostel for backpackers.
  3. Interlaken, Switzerland was my favorite city I visited while backpacking Western Europe for 2 months.
  4. I don’t talk politics much on my blog, but I’m a very liberal person. If you are a hard-core Republican, chances are we won’t agree on too many things (but I am very open-minded and willing to listen).
  5. Cats are my favorite animal – when I make the leap and purchase a home or condo, one of the 1st things I’ll do is get a couple of kittens.

Hope you enjoyed learning a thing or two about me…
