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,…

Not really a sweet tooth …
What’s your favourite lolly? It would have to be a dark chocolate vegan caramel bar or vegan gluten free liquorice. I don’t call them candies here (In Australia) we use the word lolly or lollies or confectionery.

Adulting is so overrated
Do you need a break? From what? I need a break from adulting. I had no idea of the all-pervasive nature of adulting, before I signed up for this gig. 😊😊😊 I’m just speaking in jest – a little humour embedded in reality. On a serious note, I would love some time to just get…

Medical breakthroughs…
The most important invention in your lifetime is… My 17 year-old daughter has a rare genetic disorder, which results in her living with a benign brain tumour,, moderate intellectual disability, epilepsy and difficulties with her left-side. In her lifetime there have been miraculous medical breakthroughs, which have resulted in medication which effectively negates the growth…
