Mmm … where to even start!
What advice would you give to your teenage self? I’d say “girl, believe in yourself, as you’re an incredibly strong, resilient and capable person!” I’d then follow it up with “be careful who you trust, remember salt and sugar look the same, just like how narcissistic abusers can fool people with their flashy smiles and…

A drill …
What bores you? Seriously though, certain elements of being on the predictable hamster wheel of life. You know, wake up and get household ready – off to work, school and university. Then I drive to work and occupy my mind and time until it’s time to rush home, first to the shops, then train station…

Pretty simple tastes
What is your favorite drink? My absolute favourite drink is water, H2O. It’s part of my daily regimen, 2.2 litres of water (not cold but room temperature). I also love freshly squeezed lemon in a glass of icy water, even made more delicious with freshly chopped (or ripped) mint from my garden. I also love…

All things considered…
Who are your favourite people to be around? It’s easier for me to answer “who are my least preferred people to be around?”, to which I would answer the following. (please note it is in no particular order) 1. Abrasive people who have no compassion and empathy. 2. Right Wing nut jobs – who espouse…

My camera
Share one of the best gifts you’ve ever received. There’s no denying that my Canon digital camera has been one of my most prized gifts. It opened my world to new insights, greater creativity, exploration, expression, travel and growth. When I immerse myself in my photography it’s like I lose myself in pure creative flow.…

Who me? Yeah, nah! (That’s Aussie for no)
Are you patriotic? What does being patriotic mean to you? When I hear the word ‘patriotism’ I’m left with an acrid taste in my mouth. It immediately conjures up images of those far-right extremist groups who have violently misappropriated the word and concept. I’m Australian and very proud, and thankful to have been allocated that…

Unfortunately yes…
The brutal truth is “yes I have unintentionally broken the law” and believe me for a pretty straight -laced goody-two-shoes law-abiding person that doesn’t sit easy. The worst example would have been when my daughter was about 4-months old. Through heavy and exhausted puffy eyes I gathered up my just 22-month old son, 4 year…

Untethered…
If there was a biography about you, what would the title be? Pragmatic Dreamer, a life within a kaleidoscope of nuanced meaning, understanding and hope. Fragmented, yet whole. In other words dancing within the dichotomy.

Too hard to decide.
If you had the power to change one law, what would it be and why? This question is too monumental to simply decide on just one law I’d choose to rescind. Additionally, we are all from such diverse cultures, countries and walks of life, and our specific national laws reflect our individual social and cultural…

Greenhouse
Write about your dream home. My dream home would best be described as a hybrid greenhouse, with walls and walls of abundant light. The kitchen would resemble a glass (heavy hail-safe Perspex) domed atrium, with pure light streaming in. I would have an abundance of indoor plants adorning timber and industrial style bespoke kitchen benches,…
