About canislupis

I joined YWS almost a decade ago, and it was a creative outlet for me then, but also an incredible source of learning and growth. I'm 21 now, and recently returned from four months studying Anthropology in Tanzania. In a few more months, I will graduate with a degree in Anthropology. Creative writing has been put on a back burner to make room for social theory and trying to understand just how the world works, but words and this site still hold a huge place in my heart.


Interests

I like animals, mountaineering, rock climbing, aerials, travel, the outdoors, classical piano, handcrafts, running, reading, writing, anthropology & social theory.


As a former (and rather excellent) liar herself, Aru knew that, sometimes, speaking the truth felt like wrenching a thorn out of your side. But doing the opposite meant pretending it wasn't there. And that made every single step ache. It was no way to live.
