My greatest irrational fear is… sloths. Specifically a sloth named Alf that crawled around my bedroom at night when I was trying to sleep. It happened at an ecotourism farm that I volunteered at for two weeks in Ecuador. It was terrifying! Although probably shouldn’t have been…I didn’t know anything about them at the time.
