A Different Way of Seeing. Helping You Make Sense of the Overwhelm
I’m wagging so hard right now! I finally have a book cover for my forthcoming book, Paws for Thought: Seeing the world through the eyes of a guide dog. And it’s really pretty. At least I think it is. Because it’s got me on it! I know you’re probably frustrated that it’s taking so long …
Every time I interview someone for my accessible travel podcast, A Different Way of Travelling, I learn new ways in which people with disabilities engage with the travel and hospitality industries. This was especially true for the most recent episode we published. Normie Eckard has been a wheelchair user since a motor accident when he …
Hello everyone, it’s me – Fiji! I know I say it often, but there are some things about humans that confuse me. Like why they feel the need to ruin perfectly yummy food by cooking it. I mean, I’m ecstatically happy to be given a bowl of pellets at mealtimes. I’m so excited that I …
Three posts in a row about books? That’s a little unusual for me.

It’s been a while since I updated you on Fiji’s book. And things are starting to move fast now! Fiji and I have finished creating the content and the book has been proofread. Our next step is to add the photographs and to create a cover for the book… with Fiji on it, of course. …
Early last week my ear started to irritate me. I was forced to shake my head repeatedly to try and clear the itchiness but it didn’t help. No matter how much I shook my head. When mom noticed she sent me to the doggy doctor. Usually I enjoy going to the doctor because I get …
Who would have thought it? Fiji and I celebrate our fifth anniversary today! And what an amazing five years they’ve turned out to be – full of fun, adventure, learning, independence, sharing our story, and lots of wonderful companionship. Sure, there have been a few less than perfect moments, too. But so few and far …
I’ve had a YouTube channel for years. But I’ve never really done much with it. Okay, I’ve used it to post videos of my speaking, of Fiji and I working, and a few fun videos of my beloved dogs. But very little beyond that. In 2017 I uploaded a video of Fiji and I riding …
It looks like I m in for quite a year of interviews, if the month of January is anything to go by. My most recent interview was a little different from anything I’ve done before. And it was lots of fun! Abigail Klopper, from the Cafinnate Academy, who works in the fields of brand management …
