Healthy boundaries.
Are you holding a grudge? About? What is a grudge? Who is to say what is actually a ‘grudge’ and what is actually someone’s realisation that they seriously need to install healthy boundaries in their life? A ‘grudge’ is petty, toxic and serves no one, especially not the person holding onto the grudge. Letting go…

Green, lush and alive.
What does your ideal home look like? My ideal home would be a glass greenhouse filled to the brim with large lush green plants. I’d have plants hanging from ceilings, walls and windows. My kitchen area would consist of polished concrete floors, specs of colour shining up at me. My kitchen countertops, benches and cupboards…

I’m easily pleased.
What brings a tear of joy to your eye? What brings tears of joy to my eyes? Ah, so many different and disparate things. I can’t go past the overwhelming beauty of nature and the way it so easily reaches in and touches my soul, my heart. The Aurora Borealis (Northern Lights) deeply affects me…

Why indeed!
Why do I blog? or more importantly why do I write? I am like a multifaceted, multi-nuanced threadbare rug, with many textures, colours, and shades.

More importantly, it’s the fact that I am a special needs parent- that is I have a daughter who has a disability and additional life-long support needs. My daughter woke me from a deep sleep of…

Mother nature and time in the great outdoors.
Tell us about the last thing you got excited about. I’m excited about taking 10 days off and heading out bush to camp under the magnificent Australian star-studded dark sky. I’m excited to stop at a city (large country town), just west of the Blue Mountains on the first night. Why? Because I’ll be stopping…

To be honest …
What’s your favourite recipe? To be honest, I don’t really follow other people’s recipes. I have always been intuitive, and this intuition also lends itself to cooking. I find adherence to challenging and unforgiving recipes a little boring and stressful. That is, I’m not the type of personality who gets excited to try a new…

Gorgeously Green.
How would you design the city of the future? I’d reimagine the whole concept of liveable spaces – a whole new paradigm shift. I’m inspired by the green living bricks designed in the Netherlands “ Green moss bricks in the Netherlands are an innovation by a Dutch startup, featuring biologically active surfaces designed to grow moss…

Seriously?
What are your top ten favourite movies? Asking me to neatly recall my top 10 favourite movies, is literally the equivalent an asking me to count the stars in the sky, or grains of sand on the beach. Movies (the good ones that is) have a mystical and magical power of transporting the viewer to…
