2017 has been great so far! Visited Surinam and Haida Gwaii. And was a guest at my first ever Sikh wedding (my mind is still blown:-)

I always fulfill my swap, so if you don't receive something from me, please drop me a note and I am happy to resend. I rate promptly, and if there is some effort, I will always give a 5 and heart. When I first started, I gave someone a 5 because I thought a heart was as rare as a standing ovation - I felt bad about that rating after the fact.

Would love to receive: Vintage illustrations. ATC's. Labels, stickers, adornments for envelopes. Postcards. Thrift. Ephemera. Feathers. Oddities. Broken stuff (not plastic) that can be repurposed into mixed media art. Favorite subjects: feathers, UFO's, teeth, history, indigenous ways of being; travel; linguistics; visual arts; hillbillies; dogs; seeds; beetles; ecology; agriculture; ghosts.

Travel - far and wide, I am particularly fond of the Northern Countries, as well as places like India where colour is used more liberally! I have travelled to 30+ countries including Venezuela, Greenland and Iraq.

Dislikes (although I am rarely ever offended): Corporate branding, Country music, Girly stuff, Aggressive religious groups, The Isms

Reading: some of my favorites include John Steinbeck (loved Cannery Row); 19th century novelists in general; Red Sorghum; crime novels; biographies; I Rigoberto Menchu; Rohinton Mistry; most historical fiction.

I don't watch any tv at all. I miss a lot of references.

I love planned giving. In my will, I have given money to SPCA, Immigrant Services and a local historical site, Huble Homestead. I love contributing to ecology, wild life and earth.
