Hi Monica, I am sorry but I forgot to reply here on the course site after we met.. Your new homeland is certainly different to your old homeland! Plenty to forage here though and several different ecosystems to explore. I have a different view about city foraging. I know it is not nearly as clean as in the countryside but it is what I have available each day and there are cleaner and more polluted areas to be found. I can smell the clean air of places like Norway though and there is no substitute for that 🙂 A young woman brought me some lichen and petals foraged from the north of Sweden several years ago. I keep up to open the jar and smell it now and then. Full of “prana” after many years. And that comes from clean wonderful soils and air.
Journey well and lovely to have you on the course.
