I'm a multilingual audodidact, and one of our goals in life is to be able to say something in every language. some languages we have proficiency in are English (native speaker), Japanese (self-taught), and German (studied in secondary school). we have some limited vocabulary and can construct basic sentences in Spanish and Korean and can say a few words in Italian, Russian, French, Mandarin, and Brazilian Portuguese.
I have rheumatoid arthritis, fibromyalgia, ehlers-danlos syndrome (all three are chronic pain conditions), complex ptsd, and misophonia. before these disabilities began to prevent me from working, we worked as a cook for 3 years and a barista for 4 years.
DIY, cooking, crochet, sewing, coding/web design, blogging, jewelrymaking, needlepoint, modding/customizing/decorating (with stickers, washi tape, etc.), journaling & planners, singing, doodling, video games (animal crossing, harvest moon, stardew valley, jrpgs, and visual novels are some favorites), spending time with the homies
