Eclectic Kiwi Scorpi-orpi-orpio Girl. Lover of the naff, nerdy and peculiar.

About Lizzie

Kia Ora, my name is Lizzie and welcome to my site!

A little bit about me…

I grew up in Aotearoa (New Zealand) and spent my childhood predominately as a bookworm who imagined herself inhabiting Narnia and Middle Earth. Not content with the mundane existence of school, I was sure I was an elf from Rivendell (or maybe Lothlórien), ready to play a part in defeating Sauron. This nerdish streak persisted into my teenage years where I decided to embrace and accept it. In adulthood I ventured beyond the shores of Aotearoa and now reside in the UK.

I like to walk around bare foot and I enjoy my food (alas, despite childhood fantasies, it turns out that I may very well be a hobbit – albeit with elvish aspirations). I enjoy music and I like to read and write. I like to cook (cf. TheBoganBuddha) and craft things. I grew up fascinated by aircraft and still like to attend airshows. I adore ‘vintage’ and I enjoy Sci-Fi (though I don’t really watch TV anymore). My first crush was MacGyver. I approach life via the Golden Rule (a consistent Work-In-Progress). I am an eclectic Kiwi Scori-orpi-orpio Girl. I like naff things, I can be embarrassingly nerdy, and the peculiar fascinates me.

Here you will find my musings on whatever sparks my fingers into typing. Please feel free to read what is of interest to you, and/or leave a comment, and/or ask a question and thank you taking the time to visit me!

Namaste,

Lizzie.
