Personal Interests:
Music:
My musical tastes are very eclectic: I love so many kinds of music from heavy metal to any opera sung by Maria Callas; Vivaldi, Chopin and all Baroque music; my favourite musician is Nigel Kennedy; I love the haunting chants of Deva Premal, and my favourite German neo-alternative/rock group is Klangstrahler Project. I also love Tracy Chapman who makes my heart sing with her lovely lyrics, particulary from her New Beginning album (1995).
Books:
I love to read. It is my favourite "do alone" occupation. One favourite is C.G. Jung's "Modern Man in Search of a Soul".
I like novels where the action takes place in India, a country which fascinates me.
I also like Jane Austen, the "Borrowers" series by Mary Norton, the "Mapp & Lucia" books by E.F. Benson and many others too numerous to mention.
Favorite Places:
My very favourite place is a lake in a northern Canadian forest, though my fondest dream is to live near the ocean.
I Want To See:
Hobbies:
I like to write and to make art in the form of journaling and altered books, I also like to paint. I like to take photographs.
Activities:
Gardening is one of my favourite activities because I love plants and insects and birds. I like to cook too, especially for a group of friends and family gatherings. I like to walk the neighbor's dog every day.
Sports:
I love to walk in the woods, canoe, snowshoe in winter and worship the sun a few minutes at a time. When I was younger I was a fencer and skydiver.
Movies:
I enjoy films and can look at movies every day. Just a few of my favourites are (not in any particular order): Rear Window, La Strada, 8 1/2, The Scent of Green Papaya, Roshomon, Die Grosse Stille, American Beauty. I could go on and on.
TV:
My favourite form of TV entertainment is the documentary. I also enjoy current affairs programs, and anything about history, geography, archaeology, animals and sea life. I really enjoy looking at APTN (Aboriginal People's Television Network) where I learn about the culture and what is happening with natives across Canada.
Heroes:
Jacques Cousteau for giving us the opportunity to view another world; Oprah Winfrey because she's gutsy and goes for it and because she cares; firemen for being so brave; and all those underpaid menial workers who do the jobs nobody else wants and that are so necessary to our well-being. And, last but not least my fantastic children who pursue their dreams with such gusto.
