About Me

Well, I am a country and although sometimes it doesn't seem like it- I am quite shy...which is why I have decided not to be connected to any other land masses at the moment. I love being the first country to see the great big sun rise each new morning..imagine how envious the rest of 'em must be!! I like to wiggle sometimes, but that has been mislabeled apparantly as an "earthquake." well, its not the whole earth, its just me!! *wiggle*! (i tend to do it more when i'm nervous or excited :P).I love to dress myself in many colours, flowers and leaves...especially in the spring months when i wear the brightest of greens and pinks and well- practically every hue imaginable to accentuate my excitement for warm weather and to show off my curves. ;)I often get messages from people who are from my lands but who have had to move far away, and also visitors who simply miss being amoung the kiwifolk.. I am always happy to respond and I hope that I can offer some words of encouragement. :) I do not mind if music groups post notices about upcoming gigs on my comment board (i love to support them!!) and I hope that I can offer a mutual ground for all people who have a love for Aotearoa.
Love, N.Z.

My Interests

Oh, heaps of things. I love existing. =)

I'd like to meet:

Those who dwell within me, those who would like to visit me and those who would like to know more about me. I love hearing from people who are in far-off lands but miss new zealand---there are a lot more of you than you might think!! :)
