I love simplicity and silence. On this blog I share bits and pieces from my daily life. In late 2025 I moved to Ruakākā near Whangārei in Aotearoa. 100% human (she / her). Since July 2024 I've been doing resistance training to help me maintain my independence as I age. Now 71, I'm super happy to be getting old — it means I'm not dead yet! I believe all beings have the right to clean water, nutritious food and adequate shelter, and that humans are simply one small part of the amazing life on this planet that supports us all: humans, animals, plants. I joined the MB community on 05 January 2018. Follow me on Micro.Blog at https://micro.blog/miraz .
Interesting snippet about Ruakākā solar energy development:
Harapaki Wind Farm and the Ruakākā battery energy storage system (BESS) are now operational, while construction continues on the Ruakākā and Te Rāhui solar farms.
Ruakākā is on schedule for first power in November

The battery energy storage system is a couple of Km north of us and the quickly developing solar farm is even closer — I pass it on the way to the gym.
