A mix of both
Beach or mountains? Which do you prefer? Why? My dream landscape is a mix of both. It includes rich alluvial flood plains framing the mouth of a river as it feeds into the sea. It is flanked by white sandy beaches, pristine and devoid of human life or waste. Clear topaz blue water laps rhythmically…

History and Geography
What was your favourite subject in school? It’s a shame that others didn’t take note of what wannabe dictators and fascists did throughout history. It’s a shame others didn’t remember or pay respects to the lessons of the past, and vote accordingly. No, now future generations will look at this period of history, shake their…

I’m also good at making sushi, salads, soups, sauces and cooking with spices. My specialty is making unctuous layers of rich vegan lasagna, pasta and rice dishes.

Nothing…
How much would you pay to go to the moon? There is so much of this incredible Earth yet to see, know, understand and protect, I can’t imagine wasting money on a trip to the moon. I love stargazing and imagining what space is like, and this suffices. I don’t need to pay some self-identifying…

Law , writing & photography.
What alternative career paths have you considered or are interested in? I keep coming back to “I should have studied Law”, until I look at how long and how much money it will take. However, I’ve never moved from the belief that perhaps I should risk it all and try my hand at becoming a…

Not me, that’s for sure!
When you think of the word “successful,” who’s the first person that comes to mind and why? Success can look like many things, most of which have nothing to do with money and accumulation of wealth. Definitely nothing to do with inherited wealth, privilege and birthright. Success is getting up after being knocked down. Success…
