CD Seventeen Author

'The Weights We Carry' is the first poetry collection from C.D. Seventeen, documenting her solo bike-packing adventure around the Scottish highland and Orkney Islands. A trip with a total distance of 658 miles (1058.95 kilometers) and a duration of forty-six days, with mostly wild camping. C.D. Seventeen is originally from China. She moved to the UK at the age of 17 on her own to study psychology. She was born in a place called "the south of clouds" (Yunnan province of China), an area with drastic diversity of landscape, religion, culture, music, and arts. "Whoever can speak is a singer, whoever can walk is a dancer" is a famous saying in the country, which describes the artistic Yunnan people. C.D. Seventeen is not an exception. Apart from writing poems, she is also a techno music artist, DJ, and painter. For more of her work please visit cyberdoll17.com.
