  • Description

    Like trekking, hitchhiking, herping*? Me too!
    (*Herping is like birding, but for reptiles and amphibians.)

    Hello, my name is Karina :D People describe me as reflective and creative. I can become immersed with things easily.

    I enjoy learning about architecture, philosophy, and wild plants and animals (including arthropods) :-) But, as inferable by my status, I am also intrigued by permagardening and carpentry. Hope to exchange skills with and meet you soon!

  • What else ...

    I've come to realize that every second counts, so I placed a bet on myself to stop using video games and social media as forms of entertainment. It's been over a year now.
