Hi, I'm Lucy Patterson. I live on top of a windy hill on the wild West Coast of Auckland, New Zealand with my man, my mum, two dogs, a cat, lots of chickens and a pig called Alice. I teach Reiki (a kind of hands-on healing), craft beautiful things and grow some of our own food.
This is my journal about the things that inspire me in every day life, projects I'm doing, and the little hands-on moments that make living worthwhile. I hope you'll enjoy stopping by for a bit.
