ABOUT ME

I am a high school teacher who has taken some time off to explore Europe and see friends from long ago. I love to cook and eat, to share tea and cakes with friends and to have a few glasses of wine while swapping stories. I have a passion for photography, writing and film and am loving learning about new cultures and finding out the things that matter the most to me.

I love the outdoors and travel a lot when at home as well - camping, hiking and enjoying music festivals and trips to the beach and the mountains. I think that home is a place where your best friends are and you can play your favourite music really loudly while dancing around the lounge-room!

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I'm a member of a non-profit organisation called Harvest Cambodia (harvestcambodia.com). Harvest takes Australian doctors, nurses and teachers to Siem Reap to work in a local village educating Khmer medics and teachers who can't afford a university education. I love Siem Reap - the beautiful people who I work with there have committed themselves to giving Khmer children a brighter future.
