About Me

About me... what can I say? I am newly wed, Grant and I were married on the beautiful island of Santorini, Greece on August 23rd. Before heading to Greece, spent a couple of days in Singapore. After our beautiful, intimate wedding (I can't believe its really happened now you know...) we spent time in the UK-France-Spain-Italy-Greece-Turkey-Austria-Switzerland-Germ any-Holland. We were away for slightly under two months. We had the best time!! I am a very avid travller having been bought up in a family that saw the world. Have managed to get stamps in my passport for the USA, Malaysia and Vietnam and now Europe... Unfortunately my husband doesn't share my passion but I've done well so far getting him to Malaysia, Vietnam and the big one- Europe!!!... I am a nurse who graduated about 3 years ago and I have been working in an orthopaedic ward. Have recently started doing some agency work which takes me from hospital to hospital and its great experience. I'm meeting lots of nice people and trying new areas of nursing... What else can I say? I think I'll stop now anyway, I can see you yawning :-)

My Interests

Mmmmm.... My main interests... I LOVE to travel. There's nothing more thrilling or exciting than taking in the new smells and the culture of a place. I enjoy quiet evenings at home with Grant or at a girlfriend's place having a catch up, or over a cake and coffee. I love my two gorgeous dogs, Bob Dog, my bouncy, lovable white dog, and Brandy the not so friendly at times black dog! We've had lots of good times with our little 'family'.

I'd like to meet:

Don't know. I would say my soul mate but I have been lucky enough to have met him already.

Music:

When I get stuck on a song, it really does get stuck on me! I tend to ignore any other music out there at the time. I listen to anything from NOVA to Mix 102.3. My ipod has a diverse range of music on it, music to make you move, music to make you cry.... you know....

Movies:

I am a horror movie buff and always manage to pick out the worse movies, any one who has been to the video shop with me will know my knack of picking them! But, I never end up seeing them, always end up with my head under the doona or in Grant's shoulder. I'm a wimp. I love any movies really, apart from Sci Fi and some foreign movies. Some are okay. Have been getting into the true life movies now.

Television:

The Simpsons, Neighbours, Berts Family Feud (!!), anything medical or based on true life. Oh and Prison Break!!

Books:

I am a book worm, something that amazes and drives Grant nuts about me. I would rather have my head in a good book instead of doing the pile of dishes on the sink! Wouldn't we all. I have just read the last installment of Harry Potter, I can't believe its all over now... But love to read almost anything, from the old books in dusty boxes under the bed to the latest best seller on the shelves, I'm there...

Heroes:

Any one who makes a difference
