About Me

This is my first attempt at my own blog, I contribute to other blogs on various topics.

About me: Social media enthusiast, I have a lot of opinions on a lot of different things, I like to share them with no notion of self importance or personal regard for any value to my opinions, so feel free to judge for yourselves.

I am an Israeli gal, or Ausraeli rather, late 20's, currently living in Sydney, in the future - who knows?

What else? I'm Jewish and live in the Inner West of Sydney. Some people consider this 'unorthodox' cos it's not where Jews in Sydney live. I only mention this cos it may come up in future posts in an "I have a chip on my shoulder" kinda way of what it's like to live around here. In any case, Sydney's Inner West is quirky, eclectic, arty, alternative, funky, trashy, and other things depending on your viewpoint - all things I feel I am not, but love to live amongst.....

My interests are Israeli and Australian domestic politics, International Relations, Mushy- lefty -bleeding heart -social justice type causes, shopping, art, travelling, feminism, food & alcohol, music festivals - in no particular order.

Pet Peeves: Unthoughtfulness, people who aren't genuine, social conservatism, fundamentalism of any variety - religious, political etc, groupthink, cliqueyness, self-righteousness, arrogance.

Also, I love summer and hate winter.

I'm sometimes considered a bit of a hard-ass, take no nonsense type, in reality a massive softy and sometimes a bit of a closeted dirty hippy.

I generally have a view that having a blog is rather narcissistic and have therefore refrained from having one thus far, but since I enjoy reading others blogs, it’s time to give this a go. You can expect some piss-taking as a result, might provide for a bit of light humour, or attempts thereof, if nothing else.

Lastly, while I haven't published my name on this blog, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out who I am. So for the purpose of clarification, all views expressed are my own, and do not represent the views of any organisations I work for, may be affiliated with or am a member of in any way, shape or form.
