Working as a nurse/midwife and having the freedom to work in a variety of places allows me to live a flexible lifestyle chasing waves, fishing and following the weather.

This is my set up following the summers between Dunsborough, Exmouth and Indonesia.

Nursing in Exmouth and swimming with these magnificent whale sharks in our backyard!

 

Log session in Exmouth on an onshore afternoon a year ago, sharing waves with Murray Smith, Tim Winton and few of my best girlfriends!

 

2018 My Dad Steven Dawe, rare occasion he leaves his shack at wedge island to come down south for a visit of old friends and his daughter. This photo was taken by friend Emily Gibbs at the Yallingup Malibu classic doing the Team event together.

 

A day in the Southwest, a surf then work, visiting babies throughout the Southwest and making sure they are gaining weight.

Doing a longboard club completion at Farm with Indian Ocean longboard club when I’m occasionally home in the Southwest.

Occasionally I compete in club rounds with Indian Ocean longboard club when I’m back home in Dunsborough! Love the club and the people in it, longboarding with some of these legends from a younger age is a reason why I love surfing. I love riding different boards, the people you meet all ages from all over with the best stories to tell. I have made lifelong friends in the water and in this club and love having chats with some of the legends like Mick Marlin!

 

In Mick’s garage with his amazing memorabilia.

 

Thanks Rachael for sharing your WA surf trip images and comments.
