About Me

CURRENT MISSION

There are no pickles, just doors to be opened for experience

ABOUT ME

At the moment i live to have fun- to have fun and to learn. Opening doors to new experiences and paying attention to the world around us is the key!

I am very easy going and fun Melbournian who works in Public Health and fill in my extra time to finding and collecting records and Djing regularly.

i love my food and all the cultural experiences that come with it. cooking is therapy to me!
Music generally organises my life. it chooses what i do on the weekend, brings my friends together and generally makes everything better. If we add nature to the mix, we just about have heaven. a dusty dance floor is the best kind of dancefloor.

I have travelled solo to europe and the middle east, to the west coast of the US for my first burning man experience. I have spent 4 months in South America (Argentina, Brazil, Bolivia, Peru), and a month in Mexico and am now spending a little time in Iran with fellow Australian friend and spiritual goddess, Alice.
We are looking for hosts that can show us around in Esfahan and maybe Yazd / Shiraz.

Always up for an adventure, a drink, a dance or anything new- im hoping these travels can help me understand a little more about this tiny existance of mine in a enormous world. Inside and out.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

This year i experienced something i find hard to explain to others who have not experienced it for themselves: BURNING MAN 2011. A desert full of freedom, love, music, expression and people that make the world a better place. Thank you to all that light up Black Rock City into the wonderland that it is.

Rainbow Serpent Festival-theres no place you can find as much positive energy!, Swiss Alps, Sleeping in a Bedouin Camp in the Wadi Rum desert of Jordan, 7 coloured mountains of purmamaca, all travel experiences really!
