A Glimpse into My Life

My name is Holly, and I am the owner of Willow Ranch. I love pretty things and places - just look at this photo!

At Kondalilla National Park, QLD

I have a very wide range of interests - I love many outdoorsy things, such as bushwalking, tracking animals, swimming, gardening, taking care of animals, and camping; as well as many indoor activities.... reading, sewing, crochet, cross-stitch, knitting, quilting, cooking and baking.

Here I am sewing a nightie for myself

I love learning new skills, (some of which some people would call "boyish", like building and learning to drive machinery), and I'm looking forward to learning more skills - maybe a bit of mechanics, basket-weaving, more soapmaking....

Two things I've loved learning about for many years include music and languages, but I also enjoy learning about history, other cultures, medical stuff, midwifery, and natural health.

And of course, I love photography! I wouldn't call myself a photographer, and I don't have a super fancy camera, but I especially like some of these photos that I have taken....
