Wow! My very first blog entry. I imagine this insignificant posting swimming in an anonymous ocean so vast I can't even begin to comprehend it...
Today I wondered whether I am living in a free country. Call it paranoia but it's good to stay on top of these things right? Are we on the verge of something globally catastrophic? I hope so. Hopefully this blog will give me some air, or connect a few dots even if it's only to myself. I also had a very vivid and rather scary thought about being a child growing up in London or any city and never having been outside of it. I am so lucky to have grown up in some truly spectacular places and I've been to many other places as an adult that I can now tap into when my hectic, well I think so, city-life becomes unbearable. Popular hectic-city-life mental-holidays include:
1.Surfing in Australia - I can see one particular wave very clearly in my imagination.
2.Spearfishing in Austalia - All those bright coral colours haven't faded in my mind's eye quite yet.
3.Hiking in the Drakensberg Mountains in South Africa - Where I went to school.
Maybe this is enough for now, I don't want to wear myself out on my first entry and I imagine that I quite easily could. B)
