Life becomes so much more fun when you realise that it isn’t unattainable, you’re allowed to romanticise and make a deal out of stuff for no one but yourself.

I like the way this question is posed because it’s about beliefs and not about political parties. I would, on a broad scale, consider my beliefs to be socialist in nature. I grew up, and still live in, a country with a socio-democratic system and free education and healthcare. The fact that I pay higher taxes than most other citizens in the world is no problem for me, when I, and everyone else, get free healthcare and education, as well as good infrastructure, in return. I strongly believe in equity and a sense of shared responsibility when it comes to society, where those who have the most gives aid to those who have the least, and where a government is there to serve the interests the people, not to suppress them.

Sucks that there are no classics program near you, I’m hoping that will change at some point! I’m studying classical philology at uni which means that I read Ancient Greek and latin. In addition to that I know (read, speak, write, etc.) the Scandinavian languages (Danish (1. language) , Swedish and Norwegian), French, German and English. Because of that, I understand the basics of modern Greek, Flemish, Dutch and Italian. I really want to learn Arabic or Hebrew as that would open up so many more options when it comes to learning languages that doesn’t have indo-european roots🥰
