Finding magic at home
I'm a gypsy at heart. I just know it. My first big adventure began when I was two years of age.Well, it was my parents' adventure and I went along for the ride. A massive one on a 747 from Santiago, Chile to Sydney, Australia. And there is not a day that has passed where I haven't felt ever-lasting gratitude to my parents for taking such a massive leap of faith.
The years passed and I continued to travel and move and adapt. And it has made me who I am today. A 39 year old with massive ants in my pants. Fortunately for me though, I managed to find someone else with intensely itchy feet. I grabbed on to him tightly and together, we have spent the last 10 years travelling, exploring and living a beautifully mobile life.
Two kids and 16 moves later, we are still itching. But we have found a place we love and are happy to call home. For now. Brisbane.
The years are passing quickly, as I am sure all of you have noticed and I have spent the last 20 or so years constantly planning the next move or trip. I decided it was finally time to stop and enjoy. Enjoy our current home, our life, our surrounds and the people we have met and come to love dearly since moving to this eternally sunny city. And whilst our feet continue to itch (although not as persistently as in the past), we want to make the most of now.
So this is our life, with our girls, our dog and our day-tripping and general adventures. Brisbane is such a fabulous place - I hope to inspire you to come and visit our little piece of heaven.
