Name: Zoe Hogan
I live: Sydney

I am currently a uni student and part time waitress. In a perfect world I will one day become a professional traveller, or at the very least, own a magic carpet. 

I am passionate about ending global poverty - it baffles me that poverty still exists today when we have walked on the moon and been to Mars.

After a long time of being in denial about global warming, at the moment I'm trying to educate myself about it, although I can hardly get my head around the scope of it. (for an example, look up 'sverdrup' on wikipedia!)

People who inspire me: Bob Geldof, Arundhati Roy, anyone with the guts to go out on a limb on their own

"Griefs, at the moment when they change into ideas, lose some of their power to injure our heart."
