My mission is to enjoy life and make the world a better place – one with less hatred, disdain and violence, and more care and mutual support. (I'm thus inherently a leftist.)
I'm a programmer by vocation and occupation. I also love people close to me, cats, Scrabble, and cycling.
Keen to hear from like-minded people!
You've heard of James Joyce. You've heard of Samuel Beckett. You've heard of Carl Jung.
Have you heard of Lucia Joyce?
I had not, until this morning, when her life (and her FIFTY YEARS incarcerated in psychiatric institutions) was brought to my attention by an (of course) female friend.

The beaches of Lukannon–two million voices strong!
Being an immigrant is one of the hardest things I’ve ever done. Cities on the west coast aren’t really my type of city, but I tried to lean into the spectacular nature on this coast. It helped.
Going out into the world to look at magnificent creatures, listen to crashing waves, the sound of 400K murres yelling at the same time (at the Farallon islands).
