1st April, 2018 Breakthrough the silence

For the birthday of my Irish housemate Saoirse. 22nd February, 2018

" Do you remember, you shot a seagull? A man just came along, saw it and killed it from having nothing to do." -- The Seagull/ Chekhov

The card was made for Saoirse. It recorded my first Irish bar experience with my first group of Irish friends. Sunset came with rainbow colors painted the sky in a fairy way.

The card was made for Karen's birthday, who was my lovely Aussie Mum. I loved playing Canoe with Tiny and Taxy (my dogs family) in the Palmer dam when the weather was good, and the wind wasn't too strong. Palmer River was one of the richest gold river in Australia. Nowadays there are still some people living around doing their mining business.

For Pete and Donna, before they headed back to Maryborough. It was my first week in Palmer. That night everyone was crazy at football and we had a party together. When Pete, Donna and I were sitting outside having our dinner, it was the view I saw from my seat. The moon was so bright and big that I would never forget.

It was a birthday card for my British roommate, Shareena, whom I met in tropical Cairns. I fell in love with nature there when the first time I went up to North Queensland. Various types of plants grew beautifully over there. It was as like a tropical heaven.
