Hi everyone!

I'm Oceanid, and I have been obsessed with mermaids for as long as I can remember. (That sounded more like a confession than an introduction, but just go with it!) When I was a kid I would re watch The Little Mermaid until I almost wore the VHS tape out, went swimming as often as my parents would let me, and I've always loved reading fairytales and folklore so I would read about them too.

The way I actually found this website was after a debate a friend and I had recently while swimming...and that was, what does a mermaid's diet consist of? (We're adults, I swear) Later on I did a bit of the ol' internet research, and found a mernetwork forum about it. After perusing a bit of the website I was hooked, no pun intended!*

But seriously, I've had this love of mermaids and a general love of the water ever since I was small, which is one of the reasons I'll soon be starting my training to become a swimming teacher. I've never owned a tail, but I'm dying to make one, so hopefully that will be something that I'll achieve at some point too. :)

I feel like I'm rambling a bit now, so I'll finish it up...thanks for reading!
