11, 21, 47 😊

21. If you couldn’t study the subject you study now, what would you study?

I would love to do something creative, either graphic design or normal design. Sadly, being realistic, I would probably either do business, communications or industrial business and management – things that I would have most likely ended up doing in the first place if I’d thought about where I wanted to apply a little more.

47. What do you wish you’d done differently in your first year?

This is somewhat surprising even for me, but I am pretty happy with how my first year went down. I think I could have maybe been a little more involved with my friends from the beginning, but with the energy I had, I do also think I pretty much did the best I could. I maybe could have also studied more and created a better work ethic (would really have helped me this year), but I think I’ve done alright in my studies and to be honest, I don’t think better grades would really help me in any way.

What books about Nicholas II would you recommend?

Perhaps the best one is still Nicholas and Alexandra by R.K. Massie. There is also a book on him by Edvard Radzinsky (if you do not mind a dramatic flair and some speculation) and a very thoughtful account of his life by Dominic Lieven. I would definitely recommend reading some of Nicholas´ own writings. A Lifelong Passion is probably most accesible and organized.

6, 16 & 22

Hello!

6 - Favourite Historical Royal: I have many favourite royals but I will say just one: Emperor Pedro II of Brazil.

16 - If you could join one royal family, which would it be and why?To say the true I don't know in which royal family I would join. If it was in the past, probably I would choose the Romanovs, because the Russian Empire looked as a fairy tale empire, it was rich and glamorous.

I think in nowadays I would join to these families, even if they are not ruling in their countries:The Portuguese Royal Family because they seem good family and I love Portugal!The Greek Royal Family, because the family seems very friendly and united and as I always read, the greek people seems a people full of culture and love for their country; Or maybe the French Imperial Family because I love France with all my heart since my childhood, and during my life I learned to love the people and the culture and everything about France. (Now I'm learning the language.)

22 - Taking characteristics from different royals, describe the perfect monarch.

The amability of Queen Anne-Marie of Greece.The wiseness of Pedro II of Brazil.Have Love for the country as Nicholas II had.Worker as Elizabeth II.Peacemaker as Elizabeth of Aragon.The intelligence of Empress Leopoldina.The strongness of Suleiman I.

Thriller, sweet dreams (are made of this), sweet child o’ mine

thriller: favourite film genre and why? period drama and psychological thrillers. the first makes me cry, i adore the costumes and the ages they were into. the second feeds my passion for criminology and psychology.

sweet dreams (are made of this): what’s the best dream you’ve had? i recall once dreaming of Daniel Ings, him and me strolling in Rome's city center meanwhile i was taking pics here and there with my camera. it was so fun!

sweet child o’ mine: describe your perfect first date. you have my soul if you take me to museums, not exact exhibitions to see...it would suffice being art all around or a simple dinner in our favourite place with a trip to the Coliseum afterwards. the alternative, netflix and chill. rock, paper, scissors to decide the movie.

Is there any movie about Nicholas II I can watch?

Hi!

You can watch ‘Nicholas and Alexandra’ (1971), ‘The Romanovs: an Imperial Family’ (2000), and there’s also a serie that was made by BBC in 1974 named ‘Fall of Eagles’, I think you can find it on Youtube.
