ABOUT ME

I am an atheist, socialist, vegetarian, feminist and perpetual student. I love to travel and love learning. Despite my strong opinions about things, generally I strive to get along with people and avoid conflict. I think that people would describe me as quiet, polite, eccentric, creative, and smart.

I don't smoke, drink, or use drugs.

PHILOSOPHY

"We must prefer a real hell to an imaginary paradise" I prefer to know the truth in reality, even if it is painful and disheartening, than believe a happy lie.

Morceaux de musique, films et livres

I love anything non fiction! I love reading. However, I am pretty indifferent to music, TV, and movies.

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

I successfully raised an orphaned baby squirrel into a healthy adult that lives in my front porch and comes in and out through the mail slot! His name is Flappy.

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

I know about socialism and am somewhat knowledgeable about history and society. I am artistic and do my own graphic novel as a hobby. I could probably teach a person about feminism, socialism, Russia, Finland, U.S. interventions in the last century,education in Cuba, etc.
