I’m a small town girl, returned Peace Corps volunteer (Ecuador), immigrant to Australia, puzzle lover, scrap yardie, barista, teacher, disc golfer, submariner’s wife, curry devourer, beer drinker.

I try to learn and grow daily. I believe kindness, honesty, and a friendly smile will make any situation better.

Teach, Learn, Share

I have found that the more effort I put into "mindfulness," the happier I am- while traveling and in everyday life. Photographs are fun, but memories of sounds, smells, feelings, and tastes are irreplaceable. Capture moments with your whole soul.

Stories, food, beer, hugs, language, exercise, laugher...
