About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To enjoy and share life in Moana while working hard to save and visit other beautiful places in the world!

ABOUT ME

I'm 50 years young, live with my Mum, Partner and housemates in beautiful Moana, about 45 mins drive south of Adelaide, 5 mins from the beach and the vineyards. Aaahhh, paradise. We got parrots in the trees and the sun shines everyday! I'm friendly and funny and always look on the bright side. I love to wine & dine, listen & dance, and show off our lovely city and rural surroundings. Planning a trip back to Canada & The US in May 2015 and am very excited!

PHILOSOPHY

Practice random acts of kindness and senseless beauty.
What comes around, goes around.
When in doubt, do the right thing!
Common sense prevails.

Music, Movies, and Books

Love most kinds of music, especially something new and different! Latin, Blues, Jazz, Soul, Roots and other World music. Wish I had more time for novels, but I love my reference books: atlas, dictionary, language books, stamp catalogue, encyclopaedia. I prefer interesting movies that are not too predictable.
Favorite movie? The Big Lebowski.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

We won a competition to go horse riding with the lovely Lanie Lane, one of my favorite musicians and a fine young lady! It was a great catalyst for an inspiring road trip interstate, coming home via the Great Ocean Road.

Catching a big Kingfish in Baja, Mexico!
