About Me

CURRENT MISSION

We have all the time in the world! And speak from the heart...

ABOUT ME

Please phone me rather emails. 0437 244498.

Most passionate about finding and helping develop sovereign communities/clans and seeing where I can add something, like dance, drumming, food production/harvesting/catching, singing, listening, etc...

Have worked in lots of wicked jobs but tired of feeding the system so on a spirit journey now.

In the past I have been shaped by jobs working with people generally -sincere and worldly characters (elderly residents) and with the flexibility to design such fun activities/programs to make their 'lifestyles/days' a whole lotta fun.

- Diploma Professional Writing & Editing (Frankston / Berwick - Chisholm TAFE)
- Certificate IV Land & Conservation (Chisholm TAFE - Rosebud)

Interests:
- music (anything and everything), thai food, vegetable garden and indigenous flora and fauna, surfing, music concerts, etc.

PHILOSOPHY

Follow your dreams, take heed of the signs, act, don't procrastinate and be open to changes in your dreams.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Uluru in Alice Springs. Abseiled off Mt. Wellington in Hobart (Tasmania). Helicopter over the twelve Apostles in Victoria. Held a wombat. Watched Tasmanian Devils fight over a kangaroo tail. Watched a kookaburra flap his wings in tune with his famous call! Pulling out weeds to help our native plants and animals thrive for everyone to adore. Empower ourselves and others on their journeys, particularly working in disability, aged care, performance writing and land and conservation.

Teach, Learn, Share

Culture, language, cooking, philosophy, love. A wonderful idea, particularly the eco groups, working groups and social groups that people can join when traveling and also when at home - great :)
