Pandemic

Daily writing prompt
How have you adapted to the changes brought on by the Covid-19 pandemic?

How have you adapted to the changes brought on by the Covid-19 pandemic? Easy. I am a foreign language teacher for adults. Before Covid-19, I taught people in person; during the pandemic – online. Admittedly, I have had to change my teaching methods and learn many new ways. It has been a development, and I am happy with that.

Tatoo

What tattoo do you want and where would you put it?

If I decided to have a tattoo, it would be a thistle maybe on my shoulder. Why thistle? Because it is the flower of Scotland. I love all related to Scotland – a wonderful country with wonderful people, cities, castles, forests, rivers, bridges, lakes, islands, kitchen (yes, kitchen), history, traditions etc.

Cragside. The photo is from my last trip.

I know that Cragside is in England, not in Scotland. When I visit the UK (at least once a year), my plane lands in Edinburgh, and I am never tired of exploring this city. In September last year, I visited Cragside, one more pearl on my favourite place map. I enjoy the memories of that trip to this day.

Personality

Daily writing prompt
Which animal would you compare yourself to and why?

Which animal would you compare yourself to and why?
I love cats. Yes, I am a cat lady. I used to have a cat named Alisa in my youth, and she was my best friend. That’s why I compare myself to cats. Maybe also because I like being alone. I do not need many people around me, only kindred spirits. So, if I have to choose another persona, it is an English cat. Why English? That is another story.

Fate

Daily writing prompt
Do you believe in fate/destiny?

Do I believe in fate? Yes, I do. I understand that many aspects of your life may feel out of control. When we encounter situations like this, it’s important to remember that we don’t have to charge them, and we need to learn to accept them.
