Encounters with humans and other species
A talk with a some poetry
|
I’ve never seen myself as a traveller, more as a stay-at-home island dweller though life has taken me on some surprising journeys – from war-torn South Sudan to Antarctica, from the islands of Bass Strait to ancient cliff-side dwellings in Canyon de Chelly, Arizona. |
|
From these journeys I send back postcards of encounters with other species – otters and wolves in Anchorage, Alaska, snow petrels on Rumdoodle in Antarctica, beached nautilus on Flinders Island shores. |
|
My encounters with fellow humans – African, American, Canadian, Australian – First Nations people of many lands – also surprised and enriched me, as did the hardest journey of all, the trek through the territory of illness & back. |
Let your mind be un-locked-down. Encounters with humans and other species.
