| Introduction | I retired from paid employment at the end of 2002 - then started to look for interests of things I had never had a chance to "try". For starters I tried volunteering around Sydney - from rebuilding old ships like the inner harbor ferry Kanangra, to guiding for National Trust at Parramatta, and teaching children through National Trust Education programs - to further afield, like digging dinosaur bones in Winton, Queensland. My other love is travel, so in 2008, I combined my volunteering with travel to Peru with Peru's Challenge May to July helping a community at Puma Marca. I returned to Peru again in June 2010, along with Liz, Gerry and Amanda. In Jan 2010 I travelled to WA to do some volunteer work in Carnarvon helping an Indigenous Community at Mungullah. |
