Hi! 

A little about me is that I was born in Berlin, Germany, to my German, muggle father and my British half-blood mother. My dad is ethnically and religiously Jewish while my mom is agnostic. Their differences in religion and even languages didn’t stop them from falling in love and having me. My mother, an archaeologist, traveled to Germany to excavate an ancient, magical ruin that the Ministry of Magic had been searching for forever. Eventually she met my father, he helped her become adjusted to living in a different country, the two became closer and the rest is history.

My family moved to Lancaster, England when I was 7, after my mom finally finished excavating the artifacts they found in Berlin. In Lancaster, Dad opened a small book store in town while my mom would travel the world for a several weeks each year researching and excavating different magical sites. I grew up helping dad with his shop, which he creativity names the Book Cellar, and occasionally traveling with mom when it was safe. A funny thing about my dad, he couldn’t turn away any stray cat, dog, you name it taht showed on the door step of the store. Eventually it got to the point there’s was at least a dozen food and water plates lining the little porch area near the front. This is where my love of animals truly started, seeing the kindness my father gave to these animals and the love they gave back. It’s something I hope to find in the future.

Besides my family, some more info on me is that I dress like a grandma, like to learn about different cultures and mythologies, and dream about owning a dragon some day. I always have liked to read, kinda obvious from my dads business, but most of my main hobbies revolve around either baking something or exploring the woods behind my house. The last one has lead to some pretty interesting events (ps don’t EVER accidentally step on a bowtruckle nest, it will end badly)
