artist, educator, digital nomad trying to make sense of “all this”
enjoying a cuppa after having a good old tidy up of my office. Despite trying to be paper free whenever I can there was quite a lot of paper for recycling and shredding. . . but it was good to do it. Now if only I could clear my brain out as easily . . .
