About the author

Liz

Hi, I'm Liz, and I got my first taste for traveling when I was 16 years old. On my own, 10 years and 50 something countries later, my wanderlust has only grown and the list of countries I want to visit longer.

Find me on or or I'll email you!

Still on such a high from having my New Zealand citizenship approved. It’s been home now for well over a decade, and I’m so lucky to call this place home. No matter where I travel, I’m always grinning when I land back in Aotearoa ❤️

Officially a kiwi 🎉 over a decade of living and loving New Zealand, we’ve made it official. What an honor ❤️

Less than a year ago I closed up my houseplant shop @node.nz in Lyttelton after deciding to settle back in Wanaka. It was such a hard decision but the right one. Learning to let go has been a lifelong lesson for me. Accepting that there are chapters in our lives that sometimes don’t finish in the way we envision, and that’s fine.

A few months ago I sold NODE’s online shop to a new owner, and I’ve been quietly working in the transition. While I’m not really involved anymore, I’m definitely still keeping my fingers in the botanical world, with my monthly column on @kiwigardenermagazine and maintaining an indoor jungle. And I’m excited to see NODE’s new chapter too. Plants will always have a place in my heart, and I don’t see that ever changing. Cheers to fresh starts and new beginnings!

Who is Young Adventuress?

Hi, I'm Liz, and I got my first taste for traveling when I was 16 years old. On my own, 12 years and 50 something countries later, my wanderlust has only grown and the list of countries I want to visit longer. After living in Spain for the past few years and returning home for a stint, I then quit my job and moved to New Zealand and I've been here ever since. Follow my misadventures as I wander, eat, and photograph my way around the world
