About Me

I have no idea about anything sometimes...so, so sad! I'm a dog person, but the right kind of cat can extract a smile from me too. I'm easily distracted, but am trying to work on that. I love the ocean, but it also scares me. I've lived in Sydney for 11 years, but the more time I spend here, the more my feet begin to itch. I love my job, but have an intense desire to travel the world. Different cultures fascinate me, people fascinate me, you fascinate me.
