Why?
What are you curious about? I was that kid, you know the one who always wanted to know more. To actually know ‘why’ somethings were as they were. So long as I had the why, then I could eagerly and gleefully fill in the who, what, where, when, and how etc. For me the why…

Too embarrassed
What’s the story behind your nickname? There is no escaping the fact that families can be cruel when it comes to nicknames. I should know firsthand. I think being the 8th child of 10 kids gave me plenty of exposure to name-calling and nicknames. My Dad’s nickname for me was Candle Sticks. Yep, you read…

Look beyond what is seen.
How would you describe yourself to someone who can’t see you? Can’t see me, as in visually impaired? Have they ever been sighted and have an old point of reference. An existing visual inner eye that I could speak to? Or have they never been sighted? If it’s the later and not former I’d say…

Where do I start? Religion
What traditions have you not kept that your parents had? This post will annoy some whilst resonating with others. However, it is as it is, and I intend to answer honestly and respectfully. Religion: I was raised in a pretty strict catholic household. Church on Sundays, adhering to Lent and other religious customs. I went…

Incredibly reflective and highly subjective.
Was today typical? Was today typical? Typical of what? The Oxford Dictionary describes typical as “having the usual qualities or features of a particular type of person, thing or group synonym representative“. So given that my yesterday (that is when the prompt was posted) was typical in its atypical type qualities, then yes, it definitely was representative…

If you could bring back one dinosaur, which one would it be? Okay, on a serious note if I had the power to resurrect one dinosaur from the annals of history it would have to be a T-Rex. Just joking, they’re the thing of nightmares. Not to mention useless at shaking hands, let alone doing…

Northern Lights in Norway
If you won two free plane tickets, where would you go? I literally didn’t pause when reading this prompt. There is no contest, zero, zip, zilch. Those two return plane tickets would read Sydney, Australia, to Tromsō, Norway. I would probably take the Syd-Hong Kong-Helsinki-Tromsō as it would have less layover time than going via…

Healthy boundaries
What strategies do you use to maintain your health and Well-being? I could write a book on this topic. However, for the sake of simplicity, I’ll keep it as short and sweet as possible. Health and Well-being are multifaceted, multi-nuanced concepts that are highly subjective. What one person considers to be elements of good health…

Wanderlust Warrior
What are your future travel plans? The irrepressible dreamer within is obsessed not just with travel but also with the mere thought of travel. This includes planning all the intricate and obscure details whilst still allowing for the wonder of spontaneity. I am lucky to have travelled the depth and breadth of my country, Australia.…
