About Me

About Me

HI, I'm Dianne and welcome to my site. My partner, Tama, and I moved to the Sunshine Coast, Queensland, Australia four years ago from beautiful New Zealand. We have settled into a different lifestyle here. During a stint working in Singapore I developed a love of tea and recently became a qualified Australian Tea Master. I am also interested in travel, spirituality, cooking, finding experiences that may be a little different.
