Running on empty in more ways than one.
Yesterday I finally relented and stopped at the service station (servo) to fill my car with petrol. I was pumping petrol, watching the bowser display. Anyway, another driver was filling up, her car facing the opposite direction. Given that is it winter here (Southern Hemisphere) and we are currently having colder than normal weather, wind…

To be honest …
If you won two free plane tickets, where would you go? Given the current world social and political climate, the raging wars and attempted genocides I’d definitely not fly internationally. Perhaps if I had to choose somewhere I’d fly up to Broome in Western Australia, hire a fully kitted out off-road 4WD camper-van and head…

The world …
What are your future travel plans? Seeing the world in all its glory … that is once geopolitical issues are addressed and settled. Until then, I’m travelling vicariously, even though I had saved and planned to do Finnish Lapland/Norway this Christmas and New Year period. I can’t in good conscience travel whilst the world is…

A range of things.
What do you listen to while you work? As I sit here in my hospital-based office, ambient sounds of passing laughter and conversations waft through, working their way under the closed door. Today it’s bearable and my fully charged noised cancelling headphones sit atop my desk, untouched and not needed. If the noise was louder,…

At the moment?
What countries do you want to visit? At this point in time.… I’d rather stay home. My goals are to visit Estonia, Finnish Lapland, Norway, Prague, France (Paris & Provincial) Netherlands and Belgium this coming European Winter. The main goal to experience the Northern Loghts. However, given global issues I think I might delay the…

Simply put…
How do you want to retire? Healthy, wealthy and wise. Not to mention surrounded by love and nature with a healthy dose of detachment and self-compassion thrown into the mix.

Every season is beautiful
What is your favorite season of year? Why? I’m a summer girl -I love swimming, being barefoot and exposed skin. I love the longer shadows of late Autumn. Autumn is a great photographer’s palette of colours, textures and angles. Winter can be stunning, with crystal clear crisp night skies. Nothing like snuggling up in front…

Give me a sec…
If humans had taglines, what would yours be? But sadly I don’t mean it literally. A second, minute or even hours can seem to disappear when I’m so hyperfocused. So if I say “give me a sec” it means that I’ve heard you, but still need to finish what I’m focusing on, or otherwise I’ll…

Inspired by nature
If I HAD to change my name, I would opt for a name that is intrinsically linked with nature. Perhaps I would opt for Aurora, after my absolute obsession with the Northern and Southern Auroras. I love the dynamic ethereal beauty, the evolving moods and energy of the lights as they dance in the sky.…

A bit like my sense of humour
My dream chocolate bar would definitely be dark and nutty, a little like my sense of humour. Actually, add to that a little bit of chilli, to add some spice. So, effectively a decadent nutty and chilli infused centre drenched in rich dark velvety chocolate. It would definitely straddle both worlds – being a little…
