Life of a Geek

A Geek Girl Exploring a Geek World

Living in Toronto, ON Canada, eager to explore my hometown for its nerdy atmosphere, and on the hunt for more during my travels.

I grew up learning to hide my inner-geek.

I was afraid to give anyone a reason proving that I didn’t belong.

It was just as hard earning my geek-cred the few times I had tried. If I didn’t know all the characters of a random, imported anime, well, that just meant I was pretending to be something I wasn’t.

Now? It’s exciting times to be nerdy. It’s freeing.

Celebrate your strengths. Enjoy every moment. 100% refuse to live with one arm tied behind your back.

In your travels, in your day to day, live long, and prosper.

XOXO,

Aeryn Lynne
