Hello, I'm Tiga-Rose! (she/her)

Raised by posh hippies, as I child I was endlessly fascinated by almost everything, especially why they people did the things they do. I was cheerful, introspective, and relentlessly curious (not much has changed!).

Now snuggled into my 40's, I am proud to say I’m a mixed race, queer, kinky, non-monogamous, multi-neurodivergent person (AuDHD with PDA, synaesthesia, and hyperphantasia).

I lead an introverted, quietly subversive life. I’m an ‘and’ person more than an ‘or’ person; I'm pro-science and pro-spirituality. I consume science like most people enjoy art, I still go raving, and my happy place is my garden. 

I’m live in my dream riverside home in rural France, with my earnest and adoring rescue dog, Laniakea, and Entropy, my heterochromatic, furry dragon...er, cat.

My Story: The Long Way Home

Throughout my 20s and 30s, I lived with the persistent, quiet ache of feeling fundamentally lost. I spent those years slowly, and often painfully, trying to put words to feelings that didn't seem to have a place in the world around me.

In my intimate relationships, I knew I wanted something different and unconventional, but I didn't know what to call it, let alone how to ask for it.

For a long time, no matter how hard I tried to fit into the standard boxes of loving and relating, I remained an outsider. Those years were a million trial-and-error experiments in the laboratory of human intimacy.

I eventually realised that I wasn’t "broken" - I was simply trying to follow maps that weren’t drawn for a heart, or mind, like mine. The path I needed didn’t exist yet; I had to forge it myself.
