Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Keep body and soul functioning so I can continue enjoying being in the class room!
ABOUT ME
That's me (below). I'm a happy sort - love where I live, my house, house mates , dogs and our magnificent Maunga Taranaki. Got Two new knees in April, so am keen to get out and about, host and travel some!
PHILOSOPHY
I'm a Theosophist (only thing I belong to apart from Green Party, Green Peace and but a few eyes for people each year through the Hollows Foundation). A Syndaclist Anarchist if I have to put a preffered political structure name on myself (yes, Anarchy does have rules and structure), and a Libertine at heart (as long as it doesn't tread on someone elses same right, health or happiness, go for it).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Underwater and in the sea, I've seen some amazing things....have a large stingray that seems to know my 'magnetic signature' and finds me when I do long swims (around one part of Great Barrier Island). Have spent hours watching Octupi do their intimate thing in Rarotonga, and recently watched an amazing fish in Champagne Bay move rocks, blow the sand away, and then suck sea worms out of their burrows!! Mind blowing!.
