I try to live a marmalade kind of life— unsuperfluous, yet still full of good books, nice people, delicious food and wine. I recently graduated from university and am unsure of the path ahead, but am looking to spend a great deal of it outside and traveling. I have an affinity for critical writing and dancing. I hope to be more knowledgable in botany one day. I like being in the outdoors, especially around a fire.

Interessen

Taking refuge in nature with the company of a book. Playing small pranks. Hiking, camping, rock climbing, backpacking, kayaking, fishing, playing banjo (very poorly) and learning new card games. Canning or fermenting food, baking sourdough bread, brewing mead, cooking in general. Knitting and crocheting. Dancing and humming melodies. I love to paint and do ceramics and recently learned to weave on a floor loom.
