Bournemouth

I was born in Bournemouth, England.

Click here to read all about it.

One fact that I like (and didn't glean from the internet): Mary Shelley is buried in St Peter's churchyard in Bournemouth. I visited her grave once or twice and put flowers on it. I was almost a semi-goth at the time, I think.

I have visited other famous graves/tombs, most notably, that of König Ludwig II von Bayern in Michaelskirche, München. It was very moving. I was obsessed by him and his story for a while. I think I'm over it now.

I put flowers on the graves of Jimi Hendrix and Bruce Lee

Did you go to the towns/cities where they're buried especially to do so or was it just a coincidence?
