Wednesday Weekly Blogging Challenge, The Last Place I Travelled To and Why


It's Wednesday yet again and time for a new Wednesday Weekly Blogging Challenge, courtesy of Long and Short Reviews. The theme of the week was the last place I travelled to and why.

The last place I travelled to was York, UK, back in March 2014 as a study trip with one of my classes at university. It was a two-week trip and we had several fun lectures at the Norwegian Study Center at University of York during the day and free time in the evenings and weekend. I ended up exploring York a bit in the free time.

    That's an awesome trip! I've never been outside the US, so I'd love to visit the UK someday.

      At least you're not going to have any difficulties with the language if you ever travel to the UK. :-)

    Oh, lucky you! I've watched so many documentaries on York I'm hankering to go. So much history.

      It's an amazing place to visit really. Lots of history and Shambles almost fits right into the Harry Potter world.

Announcing the 2022 Diversity Reading Challenge

Image
As we're writing 2022 in two months, I figured out it was time to announce the 2022 Diversity Challenge. I've hosted it in 2019 and 2021, and decided to host it next year too. I’m not going to make any categories or levels for this challenge, as I want it to be a bit flexible. Read as many books as you feel like reading and yes, it can be children’s books, graphic novels, e-books, non-fiction, audio books, poetry and you-name-it. As it is a diversity reading challenge, it would be mean to exclude some types of reading materials, right? Now, what is diversity you might ask? What I mean by diversity is, but not limited to; People of colour/non-caucasian characters/authors Native Americans and other indigenous people LGBTQIA+ Authors/characters defining themselves as trans, intersex, genderfluid or similar Refugees Religious minorities Mental illnesses/disorders Neurodiversity (like ADD, Aspergers and autism) Feminist themes/issues Physical/mental disabilities Characters/authors w...
