Archaeologist, bookworm, hedonist, introvert, traveller, dreamer, family historian, atheist and pagan...
I will rise from darkness, shining like the morning star.
Illuminated woman am I.
The world. An ongoing project
Since I want to visit pretty much every country, the ones marked green are the countries I'm hoping to visit in my next trip.

*HUGS* TOTAL!
give _illumina_ more *HUGS*
Get hugs of your own
Weather where I live:

Follow the dark path, with only the moon to light your way



The stars are forth, the moon above the tops
Of the snow-shining mountains--beautiful!
I linger yet with nature, for the night
Hath been to me a more familiar face
Than that of man, and in her starry shade
Of dim and solitary loveliness
I learned the language of another world.
Lord Byron - Manfred 3.4 1-7
The happiest man is he
who learns from nature
the lesson of worship
R. W. Emerson
