1) where in the world are you happiest?

Tragically, but honestly, at home with Jerad. Usually home has the ability to be a happy place no matter where it's situated. Beyond that I am happiest in my hometowns of Sydney and Bowral, and in the cold desert air at Joshua Tree.

2) name three things you absolutely love to do (cheatery ahead!)

It's been a while, and for those who have noticed, my apologies - I've had a lot to do and think about in the last couple of months, and have been busier than I ordinarily would be. I'm pretty sure everyone is aware at this point, but I am four months pregnant, and happily so. Jerad and I have no idea whatsoever what to expect, which is probably a ( Read more... )
