Hello Global Pen Friend people! I have varied interests - I am interested in hiking, gardening, music of all genres, and learning about self sustainability and homesteading. I love reading (mostly fantasy, mystery, poetry, and military history), learning new languages, thrift stores, and exploring. I have a daughter, several pet cats and one pet raccoon. I am a part time university student - when I am finished I will have a joint major in cultural anthropology and social development studies with a minor in visual cultural in a global context and a specialization in individual wellness.
