Nuna 101: Intro to My Life
Hey! My name's Nuna, and I'm from Accra, Ghana. Dartmouth reminds me a bit of home because I live in a mountainous region. The cold, on the other hand, feels very intense and targeted, so let's hope I make it through the winter. Academically, I plan on focusing on biology, but who knows what else I'll discover along the way?
The first thing you need to know about me is that I love my food! Vermont and New Hampshire diners will certainly be seeing a lot of me; you can count on that! When I'm not eating food, I'm cooking it. I love to experiment with different flavors and although I mostly make savory food, a sweet treat is never off the cards.
I truly think that if you gave me a stack of books and unlimited free time, no one would see me again. I would always read late into the hours of the night, with nothing but a flashlight to help me see. The result is that I have now strained my eyes, and I'm forced to wear glasses (sigh). My reading tastes are quite diverse—from James Patterson to Chimamanda—and I will fully engage you in a three-hour-long conversation on any of them.
I like to think of myself as a hybrid couch potato. Do I love sports and exercise? No, not really. You may occasionally catch me on the track, and I would love to learn tennis casually, but that's as far as I'll go. I do, however, love the outdoors and nature, especially when I can take photos. I'm that person that has a million pictures of beautiful scenery sitting in my photo gallery. With Dartmouth's picturesque setting, I'll probably have to buy more storage space.
I'm super excited to be a People Places Pines blogger, and my posts will likely feature anything that brings me inspiration. Let's get this party started
