CURRENT MISSION

to remain conscious of the present

ABOUT ME

I'm a born and bred Tasmanian (aussie), now living in London, as we all seem to do! Its a cliche but its also a great base to see the rest of the world. Australia, albeit beautiful, can feel very cut off. This is my second time living here and have been traveling fairly consistently since I turned 18. I'm a creative sort of person, trained as an actor, had my own jewelry company, was a burlesque performer, but am now working as a humble Nanny! lol. I love the family I work for, it pays well and allows me flexibilty for travel so it will do for now. Am fairly happy, socialable sort of person, and looking forward to meeting like minded people!

PHILOSOPHY

My personal philosphy is something I try not to project on others...I'll only do that when I have all the answers!
