Saturday Extra - Separate Stories Podcast

Conservationist and writer Claire Dunn in 2010 escaped to the bush for twelve months to connect again with nature and find her wild self. She wrote about this experience in My year without Matches. A few years later she returned to the city, to Melbourne, and knew she had to build a bridge between the bush and the city to survive and retain all that she learnt during her year bush. With like minded people she has found a city that offers so much within the suburban streets. In Rewidling the Urban Soul: searching for the wild in the city she encourages others to not only observe the fauna and flora that surrounds us but to also feel part of that nature.
