Music, Movies, and Books

I'm crap at remembering films ... I've appreciation for whatever someone suggests - not horror movies! I am happy to create blood for a scene but not happy to watch the magic of Hollywood bring it to life.

Music... anything I can dance to! and sit and chill to, and eat a lovely dinner to. Anything really ... where it fits the mood I'll take it. Music makes you feel alive!

Books - I will admit being a visual person I love glossy mags. Specifically travel, food and design.
But I do read real books too, occasionally :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One of my most memorable moments would be traveling through Canada towards Alaska in the middle of a deep set winter. Stoping at one of the national parks in Liard and walking far into the forrest towards andother world that can only be described as NARNIA. Taking a sneaky dip in the hot springs. It was one of those magical moments. Nothing but white thick snow, steaming hot springs and frost so thick it consumed even the biggest of trees ... AMAZING!!!

Venice Italy,Carnivale - watching the city come alive through one of it's most famous festivals. Colour and costume flooding the street and tiny walkways. Music and dancing. Camera flashes everywhere.
This was one high up on my bucket list and I am so glad my dream came true.
To get lost in beautiful Venice is one thing but to get lost in Venice during such a spectacular event is quite something else. I would do it all again in a heart beat :)

Oh I forgot! I swam with Sharks! Great Whites! wicked!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you the secret to a great smokey eye. But It's not for everyone and I get that.
You can teach me something random I'm sure.
I can teach you how to avoid being killed by Australian wildlife. You can come here and and see how great your survival skills are.
I can share a drink with you. You can hopefully share your kindness and buy it for me :)
