āWhen I was 19 I made a friend on Kik. He was just older than me, from Melbourne, Australia. He was Aboriginal, and a musician, and he became my close friend.
Ever since then Australia has been in the back of my mind, something that I wanted to explore and experience. A curiosity that felt close at hand, within my grasp. Over the years I've learned bits and pieces of the culture over the years, and I've always wanted to visit. Well. Now I am. I bought a visa in September, and now, November 16th, 2024 I'm here in Brisbane.

š„Iāve started getting a box of produce that is usually deemed too āuglyā to be sold at supermarkets. Even the solo box has a lot!! Nothing like not wanting to waste your produce to inspire you to cook!
Things Iāve made: * Salted egg chicken & broccoli * Japanese chicken curry with potatoes & carrots * Dehydrated apples (Hurrah instant pot)a * Fried rice with green beans, carrots, and egg * Fried noodles with tofu, veg, and a tin of spiced mackerel pate that I got at a fancy grocer * Various varieties of avocado on toast/crackers (with feta or eggs or or fancy grocer pastrami) * Ultra buttery roast veg with cheesy polenta * Air fried Brussel sprouts * Sri Lankan pumpkin curry

According to the Sloth Conservation Foundation:
"The manedĀ slothĀ (Bradypus torquatus)Ā was first described in 1811 by Carolo Illigier. InĀ 1850, the British zoologist John Edward Gray claimed to have discovered a second species, which he namedĀ Bradypus crinitus, but his assertions were dismissed. Now, 172 years later, science has proved Gray right. Thanks to colleagues from Brazil, the Southern ManedĀ SlothĀ (Bradypus crinitus)Ā is officially recognized as the seventhĀ slothĀ species!"

š®I love video games but I have specific types of games I gravitate towards, not exactly typical āgamerā games. Ace Attorney is my fave & Iām always looking for more lawyer games. Really into Genshin Impact - best integration of performing arts and video games Iāve seen. Animal Crossing saved my life. Also enjoy the My Time At x series, Octopath Traveller, other Hoyoverse games, other mystery games, Persona 5, a wide assortment!
Crosswords I get into on and off- sometimes I get overwhelmed by the sheer amount but itās good fun. Learned how to do cryptics a few years back - theyāre more like math equations!
Cooking I actually hadnāt really considered a hobby until last night - not because I only started last night, but because I do get into waves of food experiments (eg making breakfasts from around the world, using up everything in my fruit & veg box) and love to share my efforts to friends & family but only acknowledged it as an actual hobby upon reflection.
PNGTubing is when you live-stream or make online content using a PNG avatar of yourself. Itās like the Lo-fi cousin of VTubing. I havenāt done it much this year because of major family stuff eating my schedule but I hope to get back into it!
