East Coast Camp...

16-18 March i went on a relaxing camp trip to the East coast of Tasmania. Roughly around the Bicheno area.

Aaaaaaaah! its good to be back! The weather here is still warm enough to enjoy a swim, surf and the beach. Something tells me it won't stay that way for long.

This piccie was taken at the Chain of Lagoons beach where we camped the second night.

Another day at the office...


When in Chang Mai...


Sawatdee Kaa!!


Sawatdee Kaa!! (hello in Thai) - My 12 day crash tour of Thailand was the eye opening journey i was hoping for. Bangkok was our base and cultural mecca of museums and palaces. While a 3 day trek into the jungle of Chang Mai with 2 friendly guides, a sling shot, elephant ride and bamboo raft down the river made for more of a non stop adventure.

After all that walking in the north, we changed for a 4 day coastal bungalow retreat at Ko Chang with 2 days of Scuba diving.

Not even 24 hours in Australia, and i'm missing my bungalow by the beach. The trek was the overall highlight for me as we were housed and fed by the beautiful hill tribe villagers. Their hospitality was warm and the food was nothing short of yummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!!!!

Kiwi Land has come to an end...


After 17 days travelling the south island of New Zealand, it has come to an end. I had an amazing time with my beautiful travel buddy - bek (pictured together in Milford Sound). I'll try to update my website journal page with more images of the landscapes and walks that we did.

I leave tomorrow for my next adventure... THAILAND!

kiwi land



Just arrived in Queenstown after 8 days driving around the south island of New Zealand. Time is escaping us very quickly. There is so much to do and see here. Yesterday, Bek and I, hiked up to the Franz Josef Glacier on the west coast. A little bit of magic is a play here.

Apart from the rain, cold winds and higher than normal altitude - this place took my breath away...

My baby is growing!

Taken 15 January 2006, i stand in front of my maternity tree sculpture for the mater mother's hospital. It's currently in styrofoam and is almost complete in this stage. The next two weeks will be finalising curves and covering the form with plasticine where the texturing process will begin.
