Hi, I'm Amë (the ¨ is just a decoration, so call me Ame if you want
to) the owner of this website. I am an adult woman and I could
describe myself as a really talkative person (though it doesn't look
like it at first) and also a cat lady. In fact I have 15 cats,
most of them are rescues but I couldn't find a new owner so I kept
them.
I also speak Portuguese (my native tongue) and Spanish which I'm studying, entonces tú te sientas libre para hablar Espãnol conmigo, por más que yo soy principiante me gustaría aprender más (^・o・^)ノ”
I started this website on a whim on October/22, it was known as
"Zone over imagination" back them. In March/23 I wanted to change my
site name to something that would fit the site more so I chose "Neko
no Kuni" which came from my favourite anime "The Cat Returns" and
means "Cat Kingdom/Country" which is the land of the cats in the
movie.
I've never experienced Geocities and I confess that I didn't know what it was and that people used to create personal websites back then. I was attracted to neocities because I'm tired of how the Internet and technology in general is today and I wished that the Internet could be like how it was when I first started using it. I don't use social media for a long time (actually I never used it that much, I only used Tumblr and it was because of simblrs) and today except for Pinterest (which I use to save images and essentially is "social media without media") and watching Youtube videos (which honestly I couldn't find a better alternative) I don't have social media. But neocities is different, neocities opened to me a whole new world of tons of new stuff that I've never knew before (webrings, fanlistings, cliques, pixel clubs etc), fun communities to join, and remind me how the web could be fun again.
Like I've said before I created this on a whim, but now I think that it evolved into a new creative hobby of mine, where I can try new layouts, talk about my favourite stuff, deepen my knowledge in frontend and create my own online place (like everyone here does). At this moment (August/23), the website has had only 1 layout which I tweaked a lot (so no need for a layout archive).
