G’Day Mob,
Last month I was honoured to speak
to a group of ladies in Injune on International Women’s Day. They wanted to
know a little of how I came to be in front of them so they heard stories from
the deserts of Western Australia to the Tasman Sea off Eden in southern New
South Wales.; and heard of our gypsy lifestyle that has seen me work as a
geologist, a deckhand, a bookkeeper, a grazier, an opal miner and a
writer/photographer. It’s been a bit of
a ride.
But I want to talk about the women
who inspire me. I culled a long list down to six, which was no easy task, and
all of these women are from the bush. Let’s meet them:
