My name is Elizabeth, and Scarlet Words is where I write about my life in Melbourne, Australia. My blog is a place to share stories, my photography, and document my progress as I complete a project called "101 Things in 1001 Days". I love discovering interesting blogs and bloggers from around the world, and hearing from people who find their way to my site. If we haven't met yet, I hope you will drop by and say hello!
