"Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you've imagined." Henry David Thoreau

In 2010, Jeannine took a bold step and resigned from her teaching position to take a step of faith and follow her dreams. She didn't know what the future would look like or what would be in store. She decided to be daring, take a risk and step into the unknown.

The only plan she made was to pursue her dreams with rigour and passion. She did not calculate how she would achieve her goals, or in what order she would achieve them in. She simply knew it was now or never.

One decision in the right direction, resulted in crossing off numerous items on her Bucket List and placed her on the path she wanted her future to head.

She continues to overcome obstacles in pursuit of her dreams, and holds on to faith that all the desires of her heart will be granted.

About the Author

Jeannine is a teacher from Melbourne, Australia. In 2011 she travelled through Nepal, India, Germany, England, Canada and the USA. Jeannine returned to Australia on the 24th of January 2012. She then undertook a 21 day sea kayaking expedition in the Whitsundays. Afterwards she commenced her role as a school chaplain. In 2013 Jeannine moved to the Yarra Valley and volunteered at a women's retreat, whilst working at an Aboriginal boarding school. There she met Liesl, and the two of them travelled in a campervan through Italy. Jeannine completed a 3 month course with Youth With A Mission. The next endeavour included volunteering at Wollangarra a non for profit outdoor education centre, and completing a short contract at the high school she attended twenty years ago. Jeannine undertook a Flatwater course and then attempted to complete her level 3 assessment with the Victorian Sea Kayaking Club in order to transfer her skills and knowledge to working with youth. A shoulder injury took her back to teaching and for the last two years Jeannine has been working as a primary teacher in the Whitsundays. Her life in the semi remote area has been other than boring; there has not been a dull moment since she has arrived in the vibrant back packer sailing town.
