Love at first sight
If you could bring back one dinosaur, which one would it be? Definitely, unequivocally, it would be Dino from The Flinstones. This cartoon was a big part of my childhood. And it was so sweet in that one episode when Dino fell in love with the neighbours dog, Juliet. Outcome is predictable, but it’s still a… Continue reading

When the world calls…
Looking back at photos from our last trip and this photo hits true for me. Getting out on the open road and heading off on a new adventure. Exploring somewhere different. Meeting some new folk. Learning the history and stories of others. Making memories. I’m so grateful. Continue reading

If you won two free plane tickets, where would you go? My friends over the ditch are calling me. It must be time to visit New Zealand. The only question remains… North or South Island? Or both? Travel well, friends Continue reading

What’s in a name?
What’s the story behind your nickname? I don’t have one. Don’t recall I ever have. Does that mean my identity is incomplete? Should I feel like I’m missing out, or does it not really matter?

Time to recalibrate
What would you change about modern society? I’d be taking a fresh new look at how our taxpayer funds are distributed and ensuring that there are adequate dollars allocated for healthcare and homelessness. It’s not to say that other policy areas are not important. In fact, many policy areas are just as critical as medicine… Continue reading

Voices, keystrokes and me
What do you listen to while you work? All day, I’m surrounded by sound. The 9am-5pm chatter of busy workers, the rythym of keystrokes, mobile and desk phones ringing – first this one, then that one, and the enduring coughs of those who are battling the last annoying remnants of a seasonal virus. I try… Continue reading
