moni



This beautiful woman is Moni
She is the artistic director of the Australian Chinese Theatre Company
and is from Malaysia.
She came in to say hi
with the familiarity of a long lost friend.

When she realized that we had put the tea house in
she immediately sat down and ordered a coffee
as a blessing.

We soon discovered we had a common reference
and struck up an excited conversation.
She has had a fascinating life
and now runs cabaret nights from her house
with the profits going to cancer victims.



There are some people in this world
that have such an exuberance
for life,
that in the shortest moments
can share the most incredible stories,
that involve everyone in the room
and when no longer in the room
leave a tap dancing like energy.

This is Moni
She is one of those people.
