: About Me

Born in England and raised in Australia; I spent much of my childhood enterprising ways to get back to the UK. Since then travelling was my number one passion until it was recently deposed in favour of my little boy.

I have a Bachelor of Arts majoring in International Relations from Deakin University, Melbourne & Oxford Brookes University, Oxford.

I have a keen interest in politics, architecture, anthropology, viruses, economics, history, cartography, sociology and earth sciences. I have no idea why I am working in the finance sector.

My passion is ...

my baby (and travelling)

I know too much about ...

how little I know the more I learn

My parents always told me ...

follow your bliss

My childhood ambition ...

to be a farmer in a stone cottage in Scotland with no electricity

My favorite memory ...

so many - the big parties we used to have in Oxford

Why I write ...

because I can't stop

What I am reading/watching/listening to ...

The Fatal Shore by Robert Hughes

My first job ...

my sister and I used to clean horse manure from paddocks and get money for cleaning the paddocks then sell the manure separately on the street

My best moment ...

holding my brand new baby for the first time

My inspiration ...

my sense of awe about everything

Skies without you are grey and depressed, A lonely breeze runs through my hair and streaks my sad eyes. With you, The same sky is romantic; Clouds hang pendulously, Thundering along their wayward course. I love you with each sinew of my being, Truly, madl...
