Rated Esqueletos 9/10

Rated Crónicas balcánicas 10/10

I realised I've now been around here for several years and tooted a ridiculous number of things so it's time for an updated intro to pin to my profile.

I'm Joanna. I live in Melbourne on the lands of the Kulin Nation.

I'm a legal administrator for a conservation not-for-profit. It makes me really happy that my spreadsheet wrangling helps protect threatened creatures and landscapes. In my spare time I'm a (very) amateur but enthusiastic birder- I'm sure neighbours who see me pointing cameras up at trees think I'm strange. I'm obsessed with #eurovision, get a lot of joy out of trashy dance music and have been getting into #MusicalTheatre. I'm always interested in #book recommendations. I post quite a bit about things happening in #Melbourne and love discussing what might make this place better. Long walks through Melbourne make me happy. I'm an amateur #photographer, mostly of #architecture and cute animals (instagram links in bio). I'm also currently trying to learn to speak #indonesian

Some other interests I probably won't post that much about but would be interested to follow discussions on are #christian #theology and spirituality, #linguistics and Indigenous history and culture.

Rated Hijos del Brexit nueva escena musical en las islas británicas 7/10

Rated Flatland: A Romance of Many Dimensions 10/10

A classic satire of Victorian social conditions, highlighting the misogyny and eugenics present within the beliefs at the time, all wrapped up in a mathematical tale.
