About me

Gender Female
Location Vancouver Island, B.C., Canada
Introduction OTTERS are admirable creatures, smart, playful, and full of love for life. I really felt I had to include them in my blog title.
Interests Science in general, in particular earth sciences, anything about microbes, geology, evolution. I also love history, animals, travel, music, ballet and movies and nature in general.
Favorite Movies Comedies. Absolutely no drama or horror movies. I like good or even medium-quality sci-fi, spy thrillers, and disaster films. And most movies about dancing, although the very best are decades old. ~~~ One of my favorite movies of all times is All the President's Men (about two reporters exposing the Watergate scandal).
Favorite Music Classical, especially that of the Baroque period. I spent years in South America and I like TANGO music a lot. Not tango dancing in particular, just the music. I also like dixieland jazz.
Favorite Books Science and history books, particularly 20th century European history. I like biographies too. I rarely read fiction, except for good spy thrillers (Daniel Silva). I like fiction less and less, whether literary or not. I recently read Zoo Station by David Downing, and really enjoyed it.
