It’s true that you don’t appreciate something until it’s gone. Until my car aircon stopped working about a month ago, I had never given it a thought. The air conditioning was just something that came with the car and I hardly considered it to be a luxury or something that made too much impact on […]

Last year was my first year out of home. I grew up on the border of Victoria and New South Wales, and absolutely loved it. I never really had to look after myself when living at home. My parents did my washing and cooking, and it was agreed that my siblings and I would split
