About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To learn a swimming stroke other than doggy paddle... anything other

ABOUT ME

Going through life with rose-tinted glasses on, for me the cup is always half full!! I like to live one day at a time and try to say yes to any opportunity that comes my way. Grew up on an oyster farm, spent my weekends tearing up the river on the boat, sorting oysters and watching Australia's amazing wildlife. My upbringing taught me the value of hard work but to never lose sight of your surroundings and to appreciate the little things!!

PHILOSOPHY

“No matter how many plans you make or how much in control you are, life is always winging it.”
― Carroll Bryant

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Finishing High School and embarking on a nine month trip around Europe with my best friend.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm still young and have so much to learn, my ears, eyes and mind are wide open.
I may not have as many experiences as some, but moving around countries growing up I've experienced some very different lifestyles, from small English industrial town to city life in NZ, being raised at my fathers restaurant by the Italian staff, to working with my parents on our oyster farm in rural Australia.

Countries I’ve Visited

Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, France, Italy, Montenegro, Spain, United Kingdom

Countries I’ve Lived In

Australia, New Zealand, United Kingdom
