Been meaning to start this thread for a long time now. I did this exercise for the first time at the Colorado dude ranch where I was a wrangler & trail guide. Those of us who hired on for the season were instructed to sit in a big circle. Then we were asked to share our names, where we're from, and a couple of random facts about ourselves. It was fun, and sometimes you learned something about folks that you never would have guessed.
Lots of variations of this game exist. I even stumbled upon an old one here on SN, but with most of those former members now gone, let's start this one fresh. No need to share our real names, unless someone wants to. And we can leave out where we reside, as our profiles show that. Moreover, we know that we're all spankos. Aside from those details, share 5 things about YOU.
I'll start. These may not be the best examples, but they were ones that came to mind quickly.
I used to fly planes.
As a college sophomore, I took Advanced Composition, a 400-graduate-level writing course, two years ahead of schedule, and I aced it with an A. That same semester, I flunked algebra.
I chose adventure over a traditional life. When a fun new job or travel opportunity comes along that I want to experience, I simply pull up stakes and go. To make this easy, I am an intentional minimalist. Everything I own fits in my Suburu.
My favorite bed, for nightly sleeping, is a gathered-end hammock.
Though I love all animals, cats hold a revered place in my heart.
