xkcd.com Procrastination facilitator!	Siedler von Catan One of my favourite board games!
Frida Kahlo Surrealism at its best!	Pablo Picasso I love the plasticity of this piece.
Paul Auster The New York Trilogy is one of the most gripping literature pieces I've read.	Nicht Lustig So funny!
Chopin's Nocturnes Go-to music to relax and also train my fingers!	Manos Hadjidakis One of the great (greatest?) Greek composers. Particularly his work "The great erotic"!
Longest Journey One of my favourite PC games, back when games were a tad more meaningful and special!	Huit Femmes Amazing adaptation of a play to the big screen by Francois Ozon. Cathrenice Denevue is to die for! Get it? :)
Howl's Moving Castle Most (all?) of Ghibli Studios movies are amazing. But this one holds a special place in my heart for its music (by Joe Hisaishi).	Giannis Maris The Greek Agatha Christie (probably less prolific and definitely far less popular). Still good fun and a glimpse of Greece and Athens at the beginning of the last century.
