I feel in love with the map of the world and reading at the age of 8. In the 1980's I went travelling for 7 years. 2016 represents my 33rd year of writing poetry. I've had 6 poetry collections published in Australia, a chapbook in Canada and a selected bilingual edition of poems in France. I've worked in record shops for 30 years.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
