About Hot Mess

My name is Michelle, I welcome you to the home of Hot Mess Goes To OZ and my Children’s book ‘Rock & Rhyme’

As I mentioned in my first post which you totally should read, I started this site, Hotmessgoestooz, 8 years ago to document my experience moving and living in Australia. For my own discovery, for family and friends, and for entertainment purposes for all those who wished to join along.

I moved back to California in 2017 with a little unexpected Aussie gift in my tummy, so Hot Mess Goes to OZ has expanded into a single momma lifestyle blog including: Mom humor, dating, travel, reviews, and everything in-between.

I am currently still a single momma to my now 5-year-old son Myles, living back in the place I call home, California.

I have spent the past few years working on the coolest interactive children’s book, ‘Rock & Rhyme’, and am thrilled it’s finally published!   Check out my Rock & Rhyme page for more info.
