I like to keep fit by going for long walks, hiking, swimming, yoga.

I live near Coolum Beach and often go for walks along the boardwalk and I like to walk in the Noosa National Park. I climb Mt Coolum weekly and I'm a member of the Noosa Springs Fitness Club where I attend classes and do lap swimming. I also attend regular yoga classes in Coolum.
