Carolyn

teacher / travel, history & anthropology, cultures & cuisines

I am a retired teacher who has been fortunate to have many rich experiences during my life, all of which have contributed to who I am. The enjoyment of my five senses is my passion. Sight places before me images of the natural world and human endeavors. Smell provides the aromatic context of a place and all it holds. Hearing is the conductor of the music of the world, be it from a charango and quena, a waterfall, or the laughter of children. Touch reveals the subtleties of a fine textile, the suppleness of elkskin, or the softness of an alpaca's coat and the roughness of its tongue.' Taste is the ultimate of our senses as it allows us to take into ours bodies the nuances of herbs, the piquancy of spices, the saltiness of the earth and the ethereal sweetness of honey. To indulge my passion it is easy to see why I am fascinated with food and cuisines, love to cook, love music of all genres and why I enjoy travel to experience new places and old, and then to luxuriate in memories.

What I like most about Novica:

Finding Novica is a thrill for me. I have lived in Peru and Chile and traveled extensively in South America and Mexico. My home decor has been themed around my experiences abroad since 1970. Now the works a new generation of artisans can join those of their predecessors and make my home an even happier place. Anyone who enjoys the valuable expressions of unique and beautiful cultures made by their artists and craftsmen will be excited to discover Novica. And any traveler who has had to pass up a find that would have been cherished, because of the inconvenience of transport, will relish the idea that similar items can be purchased from home. Being able to choose among a vast array by comparison is an added benefit. Perhaps the most important aspect is that Novica support and advocacy of communities of artisans around the world is helping to ensure that their arts will not disappear as are endangered species of the natural world. I want to be a part of that mission.
