My advisor got her PhD in England, so I’ve been trying to get her help in navigating this. I specifically want to do a research PhD, so that narrows my choices a little. Something I don’t see mentioned much is networking. I’ve read a few studies that I can see myself doing, so I’m going to reach out to those researchers because my undergraduate research compliments their research.
There’s an exchange program called Erasmus that will provide a monthly living allowance. I saw another one that offered help with employment after completing the degree but I can’t find it now. That might have been university-specific.
A lot of our medications come from plants originally, and there are a lot of plants where I live with medicinal value. Willow is probably the best known because aspirin comes from it, and is very common in my area. The main thing will be teaching them which local plants have medicinal use, how to properly identify the plant (I have a dissecting microscope and a few identification books), and how to properly extract the compound that they want.
Steam distillation is a really common method for extracting essential oils, and it’s easy to do. Menthol can be extracted from mint this way.
Some of this is what I’ve learned in uni, but you can get somewhere by looking up the remedy you need in Google scholar with the scientific name of the plant you want to use. USDA plants has really good identification characteristics, so you don’t accidentally pick a toxic copy cat.
Planning on teaching the young folks in the friend group how to garden and preserve food, how to make simple medications, how to defend themselves. And I’m also planning to leave as soon as I get my bachelor degree to pursue a research PhD in another country. I’m in ecology and conservation, there’s no future for me here.
I grew up a little south of Myakka. A meter rise still puts most of the area under some water. Half a meter put my childhood home in a shallow moat, since it was raised a bit from surroundings.
Maybe you’re right, this won’t be a full time map. But it definitely will be seasonal and difficult to live in

How is this supposed to help those of us who live alone, don’t have many friends and zero family?

Montana voted red all the way down except to protect abortion. Just last year they had kids argue to the state Supreme Court that they have rights when it comes to the environment, and they won.
I have no idea what is up or down anymore
Where I used to live you can have open alcohol containers as long as they aren’t in the front of the vehicle.

I love how being a plant owner is a never ending battle against buying new plants and having space for them lol. Just added this to my wishlist, thank you for sharing ^^
That one is national defense, and it was given for service during any war since 1953
Source: I have one and I served before 2008
+1 for RockAuto. I have an older non-domestic car, and they’ve had everything I have needed for it
They look like music I might have listened to in the aughts but I can’t place them
Edit: just lensed it: Tokio Hotel. They were apparently very popular? I have no idea how I’ve never heard of them
