- I love animals. They bring me peace.
- I hate coffee and English breakfast tea. I love water, wine and gin.
- I doubt myself every single day, multiple times a day, every hour ….
- I adore being a mother to two curious, bold and loving boys.
- Fish have always fascinated me. The weightless peaceful watery world they inhabit.
- In my day job I work for the government where I follow methods, procedures and strict protocols. Photography allows me to be both technical and creative and that is one of the many reasons I love it so much.
- I don’t meditate. I walk in nature.
- Two mornings a week I get up at 4:50am to attend my F45 gym session at 5:10am. I dread that alarm going off so early but i jump out of bed no excuses and I am always thankful.
- I am pretty quiet until you get to know me. I seek thoughtful conversations.
- Even though I am a little bit shy. I love people. We are surrounded by goodness.
- I have been a vegetarian for 23 years. I am of late drawn towards veganism (Although I love cheese). I worry about the world.
- I hate shouting. It makes me want to cower in a corner like a small child.
- I spend an hour every second night reading to my boys. Pretty much half an hour each. Some days I dread it because I am so tired but I must continue what I started.
- I am attracted to funny people. I envy those who can make others laugh. I appreciate humour.
- I am trying live a more creative life it is something I have be doing since I was a child and my parents allowed me to draw a gigantic octopus on my wall. Its arms stretched up the wall onto the ceiling. Every day I have to remind myself I deserve my dreams just as much as anyone. It is only my lack of self believe that stands in my way.
- When I am sad I retreat, but connection is really the anti-venom to this habit that needs to be broken.
- I have always written. When I was a young adult I burnt my teenage diaries. I wish my younger self was not so ashamed of my teenage self. She was just expressing herself in a way that was essential to her soul. I still have that soul…..
- I met my love in a campsite in Queensland 17 years ago. His tent was parked next to mine. I was standing on the beach looking at the full moon. He came up behind me and said “you came down here so I would follow you”. I said “wow you are full of yourself”. We laughed and the rest is history.
- I was always sick with asthma as a child and so I wanted to become a doctor. Today my eight year old said he wanted to do his own project on Dinosaurs because he wants to be a Palaeontologist. He reminded me that I did a project when I was his age on fish. I grew up and studied Aquatic Science.
- I am full of love for others. But I am not a push over.
