I'm a curious, witty person who enjoys banter. My personality is caught between: 'enough nerd to overthink a pub quiz answer', 'enough debater to try to sway the moderator', & 'not serious enough to care too much about the outcome'. I LOVE reading, writing (poetry), travelling, hiking, horticulture, and nature. Dogs are my favourite companions. I collect hobbies the way magpies collect shiny things. I'm from the prairies, so coastlines are a novelty. These days, I live close enough to the mountains that grassy meadows and parklands feel romantic again. Currently, I'm completing my Master's.
