One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Sailed down the east Coast of Australia stopping each day for a swim and snorkell - I saw so many amazing fish and other sealife - was absolutely stunnning - I remember thinking how it would be great to see this but it would never look like it does in photos or on wildlife documentaries - but it did! Such vibrant colours - was a whole hidden world like nothing I'd ever experienced before.
One day we swam to a beach to visit some ruins and when we entered the water again a huge Ray just left the surface... was so close and majestical, such a wonderful experience!

Teach, Learn, Share

I have my own business teaching sewing, dressmaking, embroidery and textile crafts - live it!

people from all walks of life - I like people who are warm, friendly, open minded and intelligent.

People who know when to be serious and when to have a laugh and be silly.

Fun and young at heart people who are virbrant and enjoy life.
