Writer | Traveller | Dreamer. A lesson in contrasts; I am a hopeless romantic and a commitment-phobe; a homebody and a wanderlust sufferer. I have an obsession with striped t-shirts, distressed denim and cocktail dresses and survive mostly on grilled cheese sandwiches.
Do you ever wish that when it came to dating, you could skip over the dodgy people and move straight to the great ones? Well, you aren’t alone. I find that meeting people in ‘the real world’ is harder than some already married people think, especially if you’re over 30. Does anyone really strike up […]
MoreSunday mornings are made for sleep-ins (or an attempt at one), morning walks along the river, trips to the markets and if I’m lucky, a lazy brunch in the sunshine.

MoreFrom the first episode of Sex and The City, I was hooked. As each season went by, I fell more in love with Carrie Bradshaw and, of course, Big (I’m saying it again, as nice as Aiden was, I was ALWAYS for Big). Now, more than two decades on, I live in a cool(ish) apartment, […]
MoreLast year I got swept up in The Bachelor Australia phenomenon; I knew all the players, watched each episode and was once, somewhat embarrassingly, named in the Top 3 tweeters for an episode.
