About Me

I have been wandering and living in different places around the world for the past 7 years. I often take short trips home (Australia) to see family and friends, but usually it's not long until I'm off travelling again. I have this deep need to explore new places, especially culturally rich countries with beautiful nature or lots of wildlife. Travelling has been my biggest teaching. It has helped me to develop an understanding of the world and what is truly important - compassion, equally, authenticity and love for everything. I love sharing and connecting with others and hearing about their Journey. I love swimming in the ocean, playing in the mountains, long road trips, dancing (ecstatic dance), music, art, yoga, meditation, festivals, animals and creating/sharing healthy vegan food. I have recently started my 2 year working visa for Canada and I am going to continue to explore until I find a sweet spot to call home for a while. I have been living in Revelstoke, BC for 6 months but feel the East Coast calling me. I plan to stay in Quebec for a couple of months :)

Music, Movies, and Books

I LOOOOVE all music - currently into Dope Lemon, Rainbow Kitten Surprise, Kaleo, the Growlers, and Dermot Kennedy. Anything from the 60's/70's, indie, folk, electronic (instrumental), alot of Aussie Artists, and even some mental depending on my mood. I also listen to alot of Indian meditative music. Some of my favorite artists are Xavier Rudd, Ben Howard and Bon Iver. There are too many to name... Well, basically I have a deep love for music haha!

I am more into documentaries than movies, although I love 'Into the wild', and recently watched 'Lion' amazing! Documentaries - anything David Attenborough, 'Given', Docs about health, healing, environment, nature and animals.

I enjoy reading more non-fiction books for growth, health, wellness (mentally, physically, spirituality and emotionally). I love books on philosophy, buddhism, environment, animals/wildlife. And also audiobooks. I've just started listening to - 'A New Earth' by Eckhart Tolle.
