I am an enthusiastic host who has lived in Hobart all my life. I have very strong connections developed over thirty years with the Tasmanian wine, food and tourist scene.
I love travelling, gardening and keeping fit.
Adventures have included Annapurna Base Camp, trekking in the north of Vietnam, walking in Southern Italy, safari in Botswana and volunteering with my daughter in Cambodia. Other more relaxing excursions have been touring Northern India, time in Southern France. In Covid times I have taken the opportunity to re-visit many favourite spots around Tasmanian and some new locations e.g. Flinders Island.
I love returning to our city Hobart of only 200,000 people but has everything that larger cities have under the magnificent shadow of Mount Wellington and set on the picturesque Derwent River.
I cannot live without my family, dachshund puppy (Lily), and to relax most evenings with a great meal and a glass of Tasmanian Pinot.
