UMICHURARA 沖縄美ら海水族館アンテナショップ うみちゅらら 国際通り店
Author: wayfaringflaneur
From a family that travels so often it feels a part of the DNA that somehow ended up with an introverted scaredy cat who managed to get up the courage to move far across the world. Swapping rural country sides for large cities to mountainside villages and now currently back in a city. I love to travel with a good book in my bag, try delicious food and am always writing. While I'm still a bit of a scaredy cat and introverted I'm still always up for a new adventure, to explore new places, and to meet new people. Right before the pandemic hit I returned home and now am based in the USA again.

Book Review: “Ender’s Game” by Orson Scott Card
