Hello!

[Nixe]

Hello! I am from west Michigan, I'm 28, and I have a 2 year-old daughter. I joined this forum to learn more about Germanic people, seeing as I apparently am one. Because of my red hair, I guess, I always assumed I had Celtic ancestors, but my genealogical research has turned up mostly immigrants from Germanic countries. So I am very excited to find this forum! I actually found my first and only Celt this morning - an immigrant from North Ireland. So there's my hair for you. Otherwise I am part Dutch, English, German and Swiss.

So let's see, other than my family background, here's a few random facts about me:

-I love history, especially preserving and reenacting it. I like to cook recipes out of antique cookbooks, listen to period music and study historical dress. If I had no real life commitments and tons of money, I'd have a closet full of vintage clothes and reproductions.

-My favorite book ever is "Madame Bovary" by Gustave Flaubert.

-When I do get a chance to get out, I like long walks and bike rides, especially in the Fall.

-I don't really watch anime (although I've tried; everyone around me seems to love it), but Axis Powers Hetalia makes me smile.

Well, thanks for reading and looking forward to chatting with you all!

Welcome to Skadi.

Also, red hair is a genetic mutation of brown hair. I'm pretty sure it isn't suppose to indicate "Celtic". I use to have red hair when I was little, and my hair gradually turned blond over time.
