  • About the girl

    Hello! I'm Linda Nguyen and welcome to my site. It's a place for me to share yummy recipes, my photography and all the crazy ramblings that float about in my head.

    I work in digital advertising during the week, dabble in a bit of photography on the weekends and a constant learner and daydreamer. Food, photography, coffee, cooking and my hometown of Melbourne make me happy.

    Here are some more random things about me:

    I have many nicknames, with my favourites being Lindy and Rinda.
    I have a really unhealthy obsession with my iPhone4S and I am always online.
    I can polish off a pint of ice cream in less than five minutes.
    I shoot with a Nikon D300, a Sigma 50mm f1.4 and Nikon 35mm f2.0.
    I also shoot film and own a Nikon F100 and a Hasselblad 500c.
    I love ginger beer.
    I am really, really slow at editing photos.
    I watch New Girl, Suits, Modern Family and The Office.
    I used to be a barista and I am pretty good at latte art.
    I never take myself seriously and self-deprecation is my middle name.
    I love to eat and my big ass is sheer proof of that.
    I own over one hundred cookie cutters that I never use.
    I want my own ice cream shop one day.
    I listen to hip hop, soul and anything with a good beat.
    I write all my text messages in full sentence form.
    I have two tattoos, with one on each wrist.
    I must have ketchup and lots of salt on my fries. Always.
    I adore Brussels sprouts; I despise olives.
    I am a true Gemini - outgoing, talkative, curious and unpredictable.
    I never keep up with my RSS reader.
    I drive like a maniac.
    I love to belt out a song in karaoke.

    I hope you enjoy my blog!

    :)
