I'M A WANDERER...

It's funny the paths we choose along our way of life. Hard to believe over 10 years ago I was in the Australian Army as a scholarship winner training to be an Officer - my how things change.

Over the years, i've wandered... moved around, explored my creativity and love of people and life looking for my place in the world but never feeling lost.

I've worked in hospitality, law, property and for the past 8 years have been self employed working in PR and Marketing and of course my blog.

I asked my mum if she could remember what I wanted to be when I grew up when I was younger, she said that as a teenager my career dreams changed constantly varing from working with animals to being a lawyer, from being a scuba diver instructor to a fashion designer (which ultimately was my most desired career apparently). However, she said that as a child I never had any future career dreams, I was just happy playing, being a kid... Not much has changed lol.

The age old question "What do you want to be when you grow up" now holds a much different and greater meaning.

When I grow up... I want to be happy and healthy, kind and compassionate, loved and passionate, open and educated, cultured and adventurous.

Life is a journey and i'm still exploring...

BEAUTY QUEEN

For years I've always been told how lucky I was to have such good skin. And for years I always blew the compliments off with a casual thank you. As I get older, I now cherish those compliments knowing how lucky I actually am.  Catching up with family, specifically the older generations I realise that it's all in the genes. My 85 year old grandfather doesn't look a day over 70, his younger sister who turned 70 this year looks barely 55 and my mum, who probably won't want me revealing her age haha is looking the best she has in years (in fact most people think she's lying when she reveals she has a 34 year old daughter!). I am blessed with the obviously magic youth genes from my mothers side but also the genes from my fathers side which carries the Native American heritage - which I believe are forever youthful. Most people think i'm in my mid-late 20's and i'm happy with that ;-) Everyone is different, so I thought I would share my daily ski...

HAVE YOU HEARD?

After a crazy weekend of celebrating our friends Hen's and Bucks (needless to say the chores and shopping didn't get done) - the boy came home from a long day's work and being the good girlfriend I am (hehe) I suggested take out for dinner. But rather than doing the standard McDonalds or Hungry Jacks, we decided to order delivery from Menulog  a fabulous new take-away food and delivery website that has a huge range of local restaurants available to order from the click of a button. Step 1.  Type in your postcode (see image below) Step 2.  A list of restaurants available to order from depending on your location - both takeaway and delivery appear for you to choose from (see image below) Labrador Delivery Step 3. You choose your restaurant and order the scrumptious food! There was a decent selection to choose from, however we went with ALs Convenience Aussie & Indian Takeaway which has a mixture of cuisine which was perfect fo...
