Our Bungle Bungle Adventure

September 5, 2021

It seems that wherever we go on this trip the Universe has our back. Here in Purnulu the night skies are clear and the stars … More Our Bungle Bungle Adventure

May 10, 2021

This time last year I embarked on Mindful in May, a month long program of practising daily meditation and mindful awareness.

Bringing colour into December

December 6, 2020

As I write this from my van it’s raining outside. We’re camped on the edge of a lagoon near Gunbower Island in Victoria and the sky is grey. There’s no sunshine and who knows what the next 24 hours will bring. That’s the unpredictability of nature and, indeed, of life. The heat disappeared an hour … More Bringing colour into December

When a Dream becomes Reality

February 23, 2020

“You have to dream before the dream can come true.” Very recently I spent five very special days with two new friends from across the other side of the world.

The highlight of our day in Byfield National Park was a picnic and a swim in the rainforest oasis of Stoney Creek. In crystal clear water we could see so much underwater life. Simply magical. 🐢🌴
From the country to the coast. And an idyllic infinity pool. Loving life. 💙💙
New life. 🐣 Proud mum Martina and her brood of baby chickens. Overnight another chick was born and then there were 12. 🐥Swipe to see the newest addition and a bit of morning flurry. So cute. 💛
Calm country living. Before the storm. Some have it way easier than others. Swipe to see.
As the sun comes up on another still, balmy Queensland morning I wonder what action the week ahead will bring.
Yesterday Tilly decided it was more fun to ride IN the kayak. After swimming for awhile she ended up playing lookout from the front. 😂
