Answering Dragon Warrior’s questions:
- What is your favourite hangout place in your town?
Probably my Mum and Dad’s house. I live a half hour from town, so being able to hang out at their place, my old home is a real blessing. I also love checking out the library, although it’s been a long time since I’ve really allowed myself to enjoy it properly (normally rounding up children!)
2. What is your favourite weather and season?
I tend to love whatever season it’s not! Lol the age old ‘grass is always greener on the other side’ but for this reason I think I like the changing seasons best with Spring being my favourite, coming into warm weather after the cold is such a joy and Down Under it always also has a feel of Christmas fun
3. Favourite travel destination?
Hmmm my dream travel destination is Paris but I havn’t got there yet. I love visiting family and friends and have really enjoyed exploring the Eyre Peninsular in South Australia since a sibling has moved there.
4. Do you watch cricket? Any favourite cricketer?
I do! The Ashes Test of 2006 being my most memorable and I don’t seem to have watched as closely since then but still check in with most results, including following Australia’s Big Bash. I was a Ricky Ponting fan, along with Adam Gilchrist, Glenn McGrath and Justin Langer. I really need to get to know some of the current players!!
5. What is your favourite river?
Australia’s Murray River, it is the lifeblood of so many communities. As a child I remember being fascinated by the Nile River
6. Do you like sunrise by the sea? Any special memory related to it?
Who doesn’t?! Sunrises and sunsets are always beautiful – a true gift of God’s creation. Must confess I havn’t seen all that many sunrises though!
7. Favourite thing about your culture?
So many things I love about Australia – vegemite, BBQ’s, fair go, supporting the underdog, celebrating diversity – let’s pick summer cricket!
8. Do you like parties?
Yes and no! I love opportunities to catch up with other people but I also often find socialising stressful.
9. How do you celebrate your birthdays?
Cake! And messages of love. If i’m extra lucky maybe a present or two.
10. How was your school days?
On the whole I enjoyed my school days, especially time spent with friends and special achievements but it was in no way all easy.
My Questions:
- How often do you blog and what motivates you?
- Favourite author and/or book?
- Do you support abortion?
- Where would you like your next holiday destination to be?
- If you were to start learning something new tomorrow what would it be?
- What do you do to de-stress?
- What is your favourite sport?
- Beach, lake or river?
- What country does your family originate from?
- What’s been the highlight of your year so far?
My Nominations (with zero pressure attached!):
Stephen has recently published a book AND does an amazing job on his blog, he might not have time with all his regular posting but he is definitely deserving of such an award
