This blog is quite the personal one and I feel like I should share as a way to try and figure out my feelings for myself as well as reaching out to people who may feel the same or been in similar situations. If you know me personally you know that I am quite the character, but not always the happy type. I realised from … Continue reading Inside the Angry Mind of the Depressed
Over the last week or so my social media is beginning to fill with the hashtag ‘metoo’ after the Harvey Weinstein story came to the publics eye. #MeToo represents the victims of rape, sexual assualt and sexual harrassment. With a little back story to how this started; basically major Hollywood film industry figure Harvey Weinstein was accused by not one, not two but TWENTY-SIX woman … Continue reading The #MeToo Social Media Stand
Day one… We bused it down to London from Oxford to stay the night, as our bus to Brussels left at 8.30am from Victoria. I got us a cheap room by Victoria and my God, definatly NOT worth the price it advertises for! They say location is everything, which is somewhat true BUT, comfort is also nice. I got this room half price off bookings.com, … Continue reading Beginning of the Travels featuring Mama
Well it has come, the day I finish up my job here in the UK and begin the last 6 weeks of my adventure before returning to Australia. It has been a rollercoaster of a ride for me mentally, emotionally and physically, I cannot say I have become a stronger person or a wiser person, I have just grown as I was. Everyone has their … Continue reading End of One Road
The other day after being bombarded with disaster after tragedy after conflict news I began to comb back through my memory trying to think of a time this world seemed harmonious and safe. I tried remembering a time where I wasn’t feeling angry or sad for what we, as a human race, are doing to each other. The only moment I could remember was prior … Continue reading Our Thoughts on America’s Gun Laws
Wow, it has been quite a hectic time! I have found that the last couple weeks have been so busy I can’t do anything when I find myself time to myself. Between working, doing odd jobs for people and organising this adventure (which starts in 2 weeks!) I have regrettably not found anytime to post! There is so much I want to post and talk … Continue reading A Note for Absence // Music Coming Through My Speakers
I think Autumn is my favourite season of the year, especially for the fruit and vegetables that come into season. What I love about living in the UK countryside is the amount of road side picking that is available. If you go down any country road there is an abundance of apples, blackberries, damsons and sloes. It is always a nice task to go out … Continue reading Autumn Fruits Tart
I want to write about one of Australia’s biggest topic of talk of recent, and that is the vote for Marriage Equality. Australia is quite a diverse country. We welcome many people from all sorts of backgrounds that allows us to live amongst diversity, which is amazing. I’m not saying we are all completely welcoming but most are. We allow temples and places of worship … Continue reading Love is Love
It’s a journey of self discovery when you remove yourself from your normal and relocate or change. It is a part of growing up and learning the hard way is the best way. Along the way I have met people who have learnt harder lessons in life in brutal ways and I have met people who breeze with constant support from family and I have … Continue reading The Push & Pull of Just Being
We probably all have an artist that we are so immersed within their work that it actually feels like the connection is much closer than meet and greets or through the speaker of you computer. In 2009, in the midst of my music emo phase I was listening to my favourite post-hardcore band at the time, Silverstein’s, new record, A Shipwreck in the Sand. When I got to … Continue reading The LIGHTS to a New Concept
