🏫 I‘ve learned how to work effectively in a team, and that I really enjoy it.
🏫 I‘m currently a PhD student and teaching assistant.
🏫 In another life, I‘d be a marine archaeologist. I want to be by the ocean and near ships.
Thanks for the tag @Eggs #WondrousWednesday
so-soWe have two main characters, Saleh and Latif. Both from Zanzibar, both living in the UK, both with complicated histories.
Everything we see, we see directly from our main characters minds, like a stream of consciousness in many ways. We only ever look backwards, in reminiscent.
This didn't grab me, it felt very drab and I understand that's the vibe the author is going for here. I wasn't particularly engaged, was fine.
“Only if we understand, will we care. Only if we care, will we help. Only if we help shall all be saved.“
pickJeanette Winter's 'The Watcher' offers a captivating glimpse into the life of Jane Goodall and her groundbreaking work with chimpanzees. With beautiful illustrations, it instills a sense of wonder for nature and the importance of conservation. This book is a valuable resource for teaching about animal behavior, conservation, and the impact of individual actions.
About to start reading the tagged for book club next week. Still in a bit of a slump 🤷🏼😳 At least the dogs are having a blast 😊
pickA revealing story set during the era of German & English colonization in East Africa. It‘s a bit of history I knew nothing about, yet felt sadly familiar as European colonizers committed many of the same crimes everywhere they landed. My favorite parts of the narrative though, were the small details and “everyday” interactions of the characters, the lives they were able to build during & despite the wars, occupations & depressions of the time.
It was exactly as it would have been in the stories his mother used to tell him. In those stories the craziness would have been because of love gone wrong, or bewitchment in order to steal an inheritance, or unfulfilled revenge. Nothing could be done about the craziness until matters had been put right, until the curse had been lifted. He wanted to say that to Khalil. Don't worry about it so much, it will all be put right before the story ends.
#MayMontage Day 4: #FinanceDollarRelated - It was this young boy‘s selflessness that caught me and made me smile how this “richest boy in the world” with hard earned coins in his pocket worked and saved tirelessly, depriving himself of things he wanted, to purchase something his family needed.
