About 👣

Footprints along the sands of time.

Ambition¶

I like sorting. My ambition was to become a post(wo)man. 🇲🇾

Colors¶

Orange is my favorite. It is also a trap. I get drawn to all things Orange so I need to catch myself before making decisions, unknowingly, just by the color. Here’s why.

Seats¶

I love donkeys 🫏 so whenever flying I fight for seats labeled D on the plane. ✈

Listen¶

Ponies, horses and mules taught me how to listen.

Golden era¶

Long ago at Surrey I bathed in the golden era. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Contours¶

It was Brecon Beacons (2002-2006) that taught me about contours. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Grace¶

In Genève (2009-2013) I learned about unassuming grace. 🇨🇭

Freedom¶

4 years of CERN taught me the freedom to do science. 🇨🇭

Community¶

It was Downtown Eastside that taught be community. I spent nearly all weekends and holidays 2014-2015 there. 🇨🇦
