It’s easy to meditate when you’re sitting on top of a mountain and you can hear the soothing sounds of nature…

Here are a selection of photos I took at the Black Lives Matter protest this past Saturday June 6th in Sydney. It was an emotional and solemn day as thousands of people marched together in solidarity with Indigenous Australians and Black Communities around the world. We listened to stories from our Indigenous Communities and a call for change, to be actively anti-racist and make changes within our systems and institutions that perpetuate violence and injustice towards POC.

The fact that 434 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people have lost their lives in police custody in Australia since 1991 is appalling. We must continue to work towards equality and elevating voices of our Indigenous Communities so this violence is stopped and perpetrators of police brutality are held to justice. There is so much knowledge and so many stories we can learn from our Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders and I promise to continue to educate myself in our history and work towards equality in the arts and environmental communities that I inhabit and work within.

A selection of photos from my travels in a van through Chilean and Argentinian Patagonia. I believe Patagonia has some of the wildest, windiest, most isolated and most beautiful landscapes on Earth. Enjoy.

This witnessed today on my walk across the Malabar headland - an incredible slack liner walking blindfolded above the thundering ocean. Cheers to Gabriel for the show!

Today's Patagonia photo from Day 2 of the W-Trek in with our packs, from Paine Grande to Camp Francés via Mirador Francés (around 15km). A spectacular all-day walk culminating in watching avalanches fall from a glacier and snacking on an epic trail mix.

Over the next few weeks I'll be posting some photos from moments I enjoyed on the hiking trails in Patagonia in Chile and Argentina, sharing the most beautiful places I've ever seen.

First up, Paine Grande campsite in Torres del Paine National Park after a long 23km trek on the first day of the W-Trek (November 2019)

Today we drove the stunning Ruta 68 from Cafayate to Salta through a red canyon with many beautiful rock formations. Andrew and I are loving the Northern Argentina and enjoying our last few weeks in our van!

On May 3rd thousands of students protested outside 70 Federal MP offices across Australia. The School Strikers are demanding the government to take decisive action on climate change and environmental policy. These photos were taken at Anthony Albanese's Office (MP for Grayndler) in Marrickville. Anyone who thinks our younger generations are "typical millennials who don't care about politics" needs to go to one of these protests. If anything this is the most vocal generational group on politics... and most of them can't even vote yet.
