ABOUT ME

Daughter of a pilot, therefore a perennial traveller (though mainly confined to the routes of the QANTAS 747-400). I love a good read (currently The Complete Charles Baudelaire) and a nice, sharp 4B pencil. Delight in the subjective, with tendency towards solipsism.

PHILOSOPHY

All the best writers were drunks

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Cambodia, 2011. Building houses for underprivileged communities. After spending two days in Khangkachaoeurng, Svay I was on my way back to Phnom Penh when one of the elder women in the village came up to me, held my hands, kissed them, brought her face up to mine and started crying. The most intense and beautiful experience of my life
