What can I say, I want to be Ayla. I want to camp every day, cook over a fire, live off the land, learn all about medicinal plants and herbs and make concoctions with them and just be generally awesome. okay, the whole living with neanderthals and being thought ridiculously ugly wouldn’t be the greatest, but i’d make do. love, love, love this series. enough to want to keep as my very own (very rare for me).
