Give Your Best aims to empower people in need of women's clothes who are refugees, seeking asylum, destitute, with no recourse to public funds or with precarious immigration status, through access to choice. The organization wants to contribute to restoring people's dignity as they choose what they want to wear from their catalogue of donated clothing, where people can 'shop' for free.

On Sept 8th I curated a very special fundraiser event at Tropical Nomad Coworking Space Canggu - The Baturulangun Children’s Art Exhibit.

Earlier this year I was given the honour of becoming one of the international judges for the Diana Award. The Diana Award honours young people who work to improve the lives of others. Named after Diana, Princess of Wales, the award was established in 1999 by a board chaired by Gordon Brown. The Award is the most prestigious accolade a young person aged 9-25 can receive for their social action or humanitarian work.

The night came and we packed a full house. It was incredible to see all the phenomenally talented local poets who showed up and read in different languages. The atmosphere was charged with stories and raw emotion. I opened the night with a few poems I wrote while staying abroad in Indonesia and the crowd took over from then on.

The Fearless Nomad Art Series hosted at Tropical Nomad Canggu was the first installment of a pop-up-gallery art series featuring local and international visual artists: painters, mixed media artists and illustrators based in Bali.
