I'm a 9th generation and 1st generation Alberta girl, daughter, sister, and friend. I harbour a penchant for grand gestures and great love, with the soul of a pirate and the heart of a wanderer. I am a student of the history of life - an incorrigible optimist with a cynic's education. I wish to share my observations and perspectives, with the goal of contributing to a collective dialogue on global citizenship and the grace of great things. Be Well. Thank you for reading... Frannie
