The Ethnosphere

I’m an Aussie who’s spent a decent amount of my life traveling, some time jumping around boring, soul-sucking jobs, and over 6 years in the challenging but overall rewarding career of youth work and disability support.

I’ve played a handful of sports, most of which I’m decent at but not great, my endeavour gets me further than my talent (or lack thereof) gets me.

Another love of mine is music and I am in the process of writing lyrics to an album which I’ve told myself I’ll finish for about 10 years on and off now.

Being an absolute fiend for films and their characters, as well as reading a lot of incredible biographies since I was thirteen years old, sparked a passion for hearing people’s stories of how they came to be the person I meet at that moment.

But more than all that, I’m an extremely curious person, hungry for different perspectives, learning about experiences. I believe we’re very quick to put people into neat boxes of “sporty” “artsy” “finance girl/guy”…I want to see more of people as a whole, rather than just a minimisation of their personality or hobbies. That is one of the many reasons I’m starting this channel of expression, etc, is to show my life and hopefully through adding what I want to life’s story, learning what others are adding and want to add, it will be an encouragement that we don’t have to fit perfectly, and there’s many ways to create the world we want. So let’s get after it.
