Profiles
Big Sis
Big Sis is the oldest of three siblings. She went on her first international trip in 2003 when she visited New Zealand with her best mate and they went to the Lord of the Rings: Return of the King world premiere. Her favourite country other than Australia is the United Kingdom. She loves bird watching and currently has 837 species on her world life list. But this isn't her only list, not by far, in fact she'll list just about anything; mammals, reptiles, celebrities. Her other hobbies include watching movies & TV, collecting Disney pins and tracking down Big Things with Shawn the Prawn. She has an amazing sense of direction which is often used to safely take her and Lil Sis off the beaten track. Her ability to fit more than is humanly possible into a day's sight-seeing and activities schedule has long been considered an unrivalled superpower.
