You would t believe my luck today!
Lisa Millar walked into the Daintree Gateway Fruit Stall because she’d seen one of my reels on social media and wanted to know more for ABC’s Back Roads.
What the actual BEEEP?! 😂
One minute I’m stacking fruit and talking rubbish on Instagram, the next I’m being interviewed by one of Australia’s best storytellers.
And can we talk about the crew? Absolutely bloody legends. The whole team was warm, genuine, curious, and up for a laugh. They might be city folk, but honestly, you’d never know it… easily mistaken as locals. No airs and graces, just good humans who were genuinely interested in our little patch of paradise.
It’s easy to forget sometimes that what feels normal to us here in the Daintree is actually pretty special. Today was a nice reminder of that.
A social media reel leading to a visit from Lisa Millar and the Back Roads crew was definitely not something I saw coming, but I’m so glad it happened.
Still buzzing. Still slightly in disbelief. And yes, I may have fan-girled just a little bit.
Watch this space! 🍍🥭🌴
