Aan Info Maven Begins... Curating for The Curious


Connecting the Landscapes as We Move Through It/Them/Us...
A Feast for the Fine-tuned & Fantastic…


Info Maven Begins... 
Curating for The Curious


 Seeking, supporting and sharing the creative, the interesting, the beautiful, the enriching, the compassionate and the surprising in human culture and global nature.

Info Maven will be ad-free for the time being and is curated and edited onsite and by an e-mail newsletter. We'll be supported by member donations in the near future and add a Twitter feed when we upgrade our technology.

Meanwhile... Enjoy!

Emily Dickinson

“Hope” is the thing with feathers -
That perches in the soul -
And sings the tune without the words -
And never stops - at all -

And sweetest - in the Gale - is heard -
And sore must be the storm -
That could abash the little Bird
That kept so many warm -

I’ve heard it in the chillest land -
And on the strangest Sea -
Yet - never - in Extremity,
It asked a crumb - of me.
