Camping, gardening, sports (squash)

I love most things outdoors, we try to go out bush with triplets every chance we get, when camping our family tries to make ourselves as self-sufficient as possible and i just love that there is no internet ect, its just us and the bush.

 

Gardening is my way of relaxing and i also volunteer my time to friends and family to help with their gardens when needed


I only play squash and have been playing it since i was 5. have not been able to play since pandemic and squash courts have been closed around me but still very keen to play again.
