A guide to event industry resources for COVID-19. [Updated 26 March] Dear event industry friends, I don’t really have the words to summarise the current landscape for us as Australians and also event professionals. What do you say when almost your entire industry is illegal overnight? These measures are super important yet also impossibly tough. […]
We would like to personally thank you for supporting Brunch Bush Bash on Sunday 12 January 2020. We were thrilled and overwhelmed by the support shown through donations AKA #thoughtsandprayers, ticket sales, event partners and donations for raffle prizes from the events industry and wider community. It has truly warmed our heart and made us […]
[A five minute read] Before you read about my journey running up a volcano, check out PART ONE here. THE START LINE. Soundtrack: Cheap Thrills. We checked in to Athletes Village where we saw the volcanic landscape up close for the first time. Lots of loose, large pebbles. Perfect running conditions. Not. We complete a quick […]
The crack of snacks. My checklist for a perfect snack: one I can make in bulk and keep at my desk, a snack I can take to a party [and even friends allergic to anything healthy will enjoy], a snack that will save me when I’m too busy to eat a proper meal, one I […]

[A three minute read] Stress is like a vortex, taking us to a place where our usual logic can’t be found. Our energy is empty and it feels like our world is crashing down. Stress is a condition of the mind, one that can only be overcome with the mind – our greatest asset in […]
[A three minute read] I write this from the back seat of a mini bus, halfway between Cartagena and Santa Marta along the Colombian Caribbean Coast. Long distance buses in foreign countries are not something I usually say “yay!” to. In my mind, I imagine being wedged between chickens and screaming children for hours on end […]
[A three minute read] Nearly two months ago, I moved out of my lovely inner city apartment. I left comfort, security and routine behind to become a temporary nomad.
