I live and travel New Zealand in our 9 metre bus with my partner Louise which we have done for the last 6 years , but we do got back to Australia once a year to visit with family , Lou’s family is there and I have a mother and brother there .
I come from and engineering background having served my apprenticeship at the Naval Dockyards then later years moved into building .
I enjoy fishing both fresh water and salt , fresh being my first choice and I’m lucky to be able to travel to do so . McKenzie Country is my favourite part of the country , with the lakes , canals and rivers to fish .
My cancer journey has been challenging to say the lest , the first 2/3 years was pure hell but fortunately I have made it this far and continue to live like there is no tomorrow . My journey gives me an understanding and insight as to what others feel and go through dealing with Tracheotomies, valves etc .
