I’ve also made a bushcraft movie, based on my learning experiences from bush survival courses, improving my filming and editing techniques. Identifying which native plants and animals were safe to eat was important for me to understand too. I found this information through a lot of research and a local Bush Tucker Tour. During this experience I was also shown local sites of cultural significance and the stories behind them, which were amazing. My incredible bushcraft journey has taught me many ordinary and extraordinary skills. I wasn’t expecting to feel such empathy for the trees I needed to use for my shelter. I now understand the reality of how scary the wild can be and how it should be respected.
