About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Organise my life in the 4 days before I leave for Denmark!!!

ABOUT ME

I am now finished my actual university exchange at the University of Copenhagen... studying Environmental Law....
I grew up on an organic, biodynamic sheep and cattle farm in western Queensland and have always loved the outdoors.
Hiking, drawing, yoga, tree-climbing, rock-climbing, cross-country running, animals, reading, singing, riding my bike... you name it - I love it!... actually I enjoy all things new and remotely 'outdoorsy'!!

PHILOSOPHY

Whereso ever you go,
go with all your heart.
- Conficus.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Climbing to the top of a 75 metre dipterocarp tree in the primary forests of Borneo (the morning after a big night of karaoke and rice-wine) to be greeted by a juvenile orangutan casually waking up in the tree adjacent to us - amazing!
