EccentricNincompoop

I am a mother of one gorgeous girl who was born in May. Since being at home crafting all day I have found a love for my slow cooker and love trying new recipes.

I spend most my time knitting and crocheting different things for my Etsy store, writing long letters to penpals all over the world, working on cars as I'm a mechanic and learning new facts and languages.

Over the past few years, I have learnt little bits of Maori, French, Japanese, German and Spanish. Not enough that I could speak it fluently but enough to say 'hello' and ask a few questions. I would love to be fluent in another language other than English.

I have a passion for history and love learning about different things that have happened in each country. So far I have learnt a bit about the Vietnam war, the black plague, both world war 1 and 2, the New Zealand Wars and the migration of English to Australia.

Over the past few years, I have been building a collection of postcards from all over the world that I am going to make a scrapbook to teach my baby about different places around the world.

On a cold winters day, if I am not snowboarding or skiing, I would be found watching Netflix or listening to music while enjoying a cup of tea wrapped up in the cosiest of slippers or fluffy socks, my favourite hoodie or onesie and a beanie!

I enjoy a wide range of music from heavy metal to pop to relaxing flowy music. My favourite playlists on Spotify at the moment are The Most Beautiful Songs in the World and We Will Over Come All.

I love history books and the odd romance and action book. Murder mysteries keep me on my toes. As long as the dog doesn't get killed I will happily read it!

I love working on my bullet journal or craft journal. I love vintage, rustic and 1980's hippie sort of themes. I feel like that was the sort of time I should have been born in. I have a type writer that I would love to use more frequently, but I need to find ink ribbon for it.
