Who would believe that icy mountains of Iceland in the far north could possibly mirror the Australian hot realms of Uluru in the south... Mother Nature is surely a wonder... https://t.co/E2GPDaCy10

Connecting moments in my peninsula world, my Australia and beyond...Whatever speaks to my thalassophile soul in these tidal days...

Iceland meets Uluru?...
Wiradjuri country...
What a grand idea...Another way to connect with the original spirit of our land...And for me personally, another sign that my life overhaul is on track...Coolamon is so very close to my future destination...For now, I live on the land of the Bunurong people of the Kulin Nation. https://t.co/Qgy9wuCKY1 pic.twitter.com/3wTPc7ACbn

2019 Chinese film 'Better Days' = story of a bullied high school girl+teenage street thug, how their lives were changed by each other. Also, while self-quarantining as a band, OneRepublic wrote the hopeful song “Better Days”.

a Pisa reflection...
Interesting that Australia ranks at about the midpoint between New Zealand above + United States below...Pisa purports to measure knowledge, skills + competencies. But I still feel that the test leans to knowledge-dependent skills and competencies...Where do the arts/trades fit?

Murriyang...
The melodious 'Murriyang' - a Wiradjuri word - represents the 'skyworld' where the creator spirit Biyaami lives and now is the new name for the Parkes telescope in western NSW. Old and new spirits are connecting it seems. Great win for NAIDOC Week. https://t.co/Gv48Jl8EAl pic.twitter.com/ymau6qk27W
