What do you do? I have just finished compiling a book of Children's answers on various topics such as love, God, peace, heroes and so on.
What is it called? Children's Answers to Everything - It will be released in April.
What was the best answer a kid gave you and what did you ask?
I loved all the answers, it would be to hard to select one. I asked
them all sorts of things from what it means to be a hero, what they
believe about God, what makes the stars twinkle and so on.
What are you loving right now? Who or what inspires you? Children inspire me, obviously and I am loving being an auntie to my four-month-old niece.
Are you reading any books at the moment? Shantaram by Gregory Davis Roberts
Any websites you read on a regular basis? I'm obsessed with Postsecret.com
What TV shows do you love? The
West Wing, The Office and Entourage. I watch them on DVD though, so I
tend to watch episode after episode, very addictive and time consuming.
Who are you listening to on your IPOD? Random songs, anything from Roy Orbison to Mike Hudson, Nivarna to Madonna.
If you could fill your wardrobe with the collection of any fashion designer in the world, who would it be?
Any fashion designer that felt even the slightest inclination to fill
my wardrobe with their collection would be more than fine by me.
Anything that meant I didn't have to shop for clothes would be also be
ideal.

What 3 places are a must for those visiting Sydney?
The walk from Circular Quay through the Botanic Gardens to Lady
Macquaries Chair, and then maybe catch a ferry to Watsons Bay or Manly.
The Bondi to Bronte walk or anything to do with the beaches or the
Harbour is also great, but it's hard to choose because Sydney is an
amazing city.
What can't you live without? May I never find out.
What's your fav city in the world and why?
Other than Sydney, New York and Milan because they are the cities I
have spent the most time in and they hold such amazing memories.
What can we do to become more socially conscious of our environment? I
think the best thing we can do is to educate ourselves and make
ourselves aware of the issues that are facing our environment. For
example, watching a movie like An Inconvenient Truth is a good start. And with this awareness, we should look to be making the changes necessary on a daily basis.

Charlie Huveneers. Age 26. Originally from Belgium but has been living in Sydney for 4 years
What do you do? I'm a Marine Biologist. What do you specialize in? Shark biology and ecology.
Any close encounters we should know about?
My work involves lots of work on or under water. I have dived with and
studied a large variety of shark species, including basking sharks in
England, lemon sharks in the Bahamas, white sharks in South Africa,
whales, tiger sharks and hammerheads in Australia, bull sharks in Fiji
and focused research on wobbegong sharks in NSW which are commercially
targeted for 'flake'. Some of the underwater work includes tagging
sharks with a modified hand-spear to attach acoustic tags around the
shark's first dorsal fins. The shark's reaction is varied and ranges
from no reaction to charging at you.
What are you loving right now? Aussie BBQs (nothing better than a good feed with some chilled beverages and your close mates)
What inspires you? I'm enjoying the Australian lifestyle and being close to the ocean.
What do you love about Bondi?
I find it great that so many people get up early and do some kind of
sports on the beach in the morning. It gets crowded but it's good to
see that people make an effort
What book are you currently reading? Just finished "Eddie Would Go", biography of a famous Hawaiian surfer who died prematurely
Do you read magazines/newspapers, if so, which? Mostly Scuba-diving magazines and Surfing World.

In your opinion what are the powerful brands in the world right now? Shell or any petrol company.
What 3 cool things should someone do when visiting Sydney? Dive with the sharks at the Manly Aquarium to
realize sharks are not the deadly eating machines people usually
picture them as. Do the Bondi to Coogee walk to get an idea of Sydney's
amazing coastal landscape. Have a barbie (BBQ) in Bronte, kick the ball
around and try out surfing.
Have you ever auditioned for a reality TV show? Nope and I reckon I'd be the first one kicked out of Big Brother, as I'd be having fun annoying everybody.
What's the most interesting place you've visited in the last 12 months. Just been to Fiji and did some work with the Bull sharks which was fun, shame it was flat though
What's your fav city in the world and why? Any remote town with good beaches to get away from the big cities when you need a break. Port Stephens can be great although I might get bored if lived there.

Which is the coolest surfing brand on the planet? Good question, but the short of it is they're all too expensive!
