trials, tribulations and triumphs of an Australian storyteller 'I acknowledge the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and traditional owners of the lands on which I live and work, especially the Yugara and Turrbal people. I am inspired by the way in which storytelling is bound in country, culture and language.' 'I commit to work together in the current Climate Crisis to maintain the Australian environment on which we are all dependent.'

Harbin to South Brisbane
Sat in one of our neighbours loungeroom today and shot an interview. What a life story unfolded as 91 year old Nadia told us her life story of growing up in the Russian enclave Chinese city of Harbin, surviving floods and wars, epidemics and poverty and eventually emigrating to Australia. I'm really looking forward to recording more of her stories and putting them together as oral history recordings and digital stories.
