"Creating with your hands is the heart's meditation, a quiet rebellion in a fast-paced world. Cherish each stitch, carve, and brushstroke." - Anonymous

Hello! I forgot to make an intro post when I moved to this instance. Ope!

I am Nessie. For entertainment, I make messes and then try and figure out how to clean them up. Aka I’m an artist, haha.

I’m interested in lots of stuff! Stuff like this:

#Poorskills #Repurposing #Degrowth #ZeroWaste #SolarPunk #HopePunk #Gardening #ScratchCooking #SeedSaving #HouseKeeping #SimpleLiving #Dyslexia #ElderCare #Biking #SlowLiving #Drawing #PenAndInk #MixedMediaArt #AltText #DisabilityRights

And a bunch of other things that’ll pop up as I go along. Pleased to meet you all and I hope you have a wonderful day!

#ViewFromTheGate soft rain and a cold bite to the wind. Today is the day, after two weeks of a nasty head cold virus, I think I can manage *all* the chores . I am back inside an hour and a half later feeling wrung out. Going to have an easier afternoon. #SlowLiving #gardening

Hooray! After 4 years on the waiting list we have an #allotment and it is really lovely. We are fortunate that the previous tenants have left a quirky shed, a large fruit cage and a well structured plot. It's going to need lots of organic matter as it doesn't look particularly well cultivated and there's a fair amount of wasted space. Looking forward to putting our stamp on it. It is 5 minutes from home and near a national cycle route. #foodgrowing #slowliving #selfsufficiency #allotmentlife

Hoy fuí con mi esposa y mis pequeños en bicicleta a la playa, nos divertimos como nunca, solo la playa, las bicicleta y nosotros, no había fotos, ni teléfono, nada de eso. Toda una genialidad. Momentos verdaderos para nosotros. No para las redes. #slowtech #slowliving #lifestyle #bicycling
