Greetings from Tear!

[Rolan Salvane]

Hello, lovely people! 

 

Glad to be here. I've been a fan of the Wheel of Time series since 2000, when I was in the tenth grade, and found the first book at a bookstore in the mall. I finally finished the full series only a couple of years ago, because I wanted to be able to buy all of the books and then read them through. Honestly, that took me far longer than I ever expected, but man was it a wild ride!

 

Anyway, I'm a massive bookworm, usually have at least two books going at any given time. I'm also a cinephile, much to the annoyance of my partner. I love anything sci-fi fantasy, in book, television, or movie form, I am a huge fan of studying other cultures, from their languages to their customs, and especially their foods! My partner and I live in his hometown in Texas, surrounded by family, and we share our lives with our lovely dog. 

 

My biggest dream in life is to one day travel to Japan, and potentially move there to live.

G'day Rolan from Tear/Texas!

 

Welcome to DM - hopefully you're finding it meets your book/cinephile and culture needs 🙂

 

Nice to see a fellow language/cultures/food fiend, book-nerd and Y2K 10th grader popping in!

 

Do you have any favourite places/people/food/languages to study besides Japan/Japanese? (I have forgotten almost every word now, and have sadly never been to Japan as yet, but Japanese was my introduction to loving foreign language-learning, waaaaaaaaay back in primary school days ❤️ ).

 

If you haven't found it already, the Band of the Red Hand group has specific focus on travel, food and music... I haven't been there for a while so can't speak to current activity, but the group/people there were always fun!

Welcome to DM, Rolan!

Lovely to see someone else here who's interested in the same things 😁

Have you had a look around Dragonmount yet? Got any questions?
