it doesn’t have to be hard

July 14, 2013

Early on when the G.O. and I realised that he and I were an “us” and were negotiating our way through a new kind of relationship, his wise words were it doesn’t have to be hard. Last week we clocked up 8 years of cohabitating, and that simple philosophy stands us in good stead still. … More it doesn’t have to be hard

After a decade of living in tiny apartments in the inner-city of Sydney, Australia with my husband referred to in my posts as the Gorgeous One (G.O.) while I worked in corporate-legal and the G.O. in civil earthworks we relocated 500 kilometres north in December 2015 to our home in the Nambucca Valley, NSW to follow our dream of living simply and creatively. In 2016 we did the great Australian road trip in our ute towing an old pop top caravan then settled in to applying our #LiveSimpleHomeMadeGrownLocalCreativeBetter philosophy to our lives and 1930’s house & garden. For the first few years I was a student: something I had long dreamed of. These days I’m one half of Sunshine Cottage Urban Permaculture, a member of Permaculture Australia and several local community resilience initiatives. I continue to learn, apply and share my experience in social media, permaculture, design and downshifting. From time to time, I write about day-to-day life, past & present, people & places, and take photographs with my smart phone for my blog and social media accounts @daleleelife101.
