Once it was the favourite book of my grand-grand-aunt (sister of my grand-grand-father) and was all worn down as I found it in a box some 10yrs ago. I did an apprenticeship as a bookbinder and asked my boss if I could restore the book in our workshop. This is the result! Sooo proud of me! :)

    Should be "accounts" But I can't change it. The stories of living in a large city during the heat of summer are eye opening/watering.

    Martha Stewart invested in publishing this book because of an inside tip.

    Don't know what it says. An American and only speak English, but it's a beautiful cover.

    Back when it was still legal, I took a bunch of mushrooms on one of Thailand’s islands and I tripped to hard that the ocean and the rocks looked like they were of Peruvian design. That was definitely a trip within a trip. I’d love to try Ayahuasca someday, and I’ve also never had peyote. I love psychedelics, but because of the one bad trip I had, I don’t like to take them without someone around or who will always be available by phone to talk me down should it ever happen again.

    I loved algebra and hated geometry. I’ve been thinking of relearning algebra to see if it’s as much fun as I remember it being.
