A philosophic Aussie writes here at StPA, one who will readily admit to loving Scandinavia. I'm interested in global politics and what drives us to be who we are. Scratch the surface and you'll find a practical Environmentalist with an egalitarian bent, trying to unleash a little creativity via the written word.
Scandinavian culture, literature and traditions are close to my heart, even though I'm Australian. Travel and courteous discussions greatly broaden the mind, so I travel if I can and am always up for a vigorous, respectful discussion. I'm an avid reader, I enjoy photography and craft, particularly traditional art forms. I hope you'll find 'Something to Ponder About,' in my WordPress Community.

Thanks you Lin. My garden isn’t full of flowers at the moment, because it is so very hot, but a month or so ago, it was covered in purple and white daisies.
It was a pretty sight Lina, it is just a shame that it is so transient. We have to enjoy them while they are blooming and I long to sit outside in the garden resting my eyes on the colours. Do you have a garden?
That is quite some balcony garden. What do you call a money plant? I have a Draceana and that is what I call it but somehow I don’t think it is the same!
