Things to Learn

I've started making a list of things I want to learn/skills I want to acquire.
Let me share a few.

Sewing.
Not just a bit of stitching so I can fix clothes that start to fall apart, but I want to learn how to make my own clothing.

Knitting/Crocheting.
I already know to do some knitting, but I want to learn more techniques and once again, be able to make my own sweaters, hats, blankets, etc.

The Process of Making Yarn.
From start to finish...Raising the sheep to dying the wool to spinning the yarn.

The Ability to Identify Useful Plants in the Wild.
Do I really need to explain much more? How cool would it be to be able to identify the edible and inedible. The plants you can use to make your own teas, plants for dying, plants for...well just knowing what they are.

Fluency in a second (and hopefully a third) Language.
Traveling in India with Satpreet, who can speak Punjabi and Hindi, has only solidified this desire so much more. I will become fluent in another language be it Spanish, Arabic, French, or another.

Gardening/Farming.
I want to continue learning more about the soil we walk on and how to grow food and beautiful plants in it.

Identifying Animal Tracks/Waste.
Hmmm. May seem like something an eight year old boy would be obsessed with. Well, when I was six I wanted to be an eight year old boy...so it makes sense right?

Photography.
It'd be nice to learn how to capture (without photoshop) the beauty of the world through a lens.


Ok, that's it for now, but there is soooo much more. Most of which I can't remember at the moment.
