How long have you lived in Montville for?
I only just moved back here after living in Brisbane for 25 years, but I used to live here as a kid in the 80s.
Why did you decide to move to Montville?
I moved here to become a carer for my mother, she’s got disabilities and struggles to care for herself so I’ve come to care for her.
What do you love about living in Montville?
I just love it here, it’s just so beautiful, it’s refreshing coming from Brisbane because it’s not as busy here as it is in the city. It’s busier than when I used to live here as a kid, but it’s still nice. It’s also good not to live near a highway.
What do you do for a living?
I’m a sound engineer, I own my own recording studio but it basically runs itself.
Is there anything you would change about Montville?
Not necessarily, I’m glad it hasn’t become over developed or anything from when I used to live here, but it’s still quite rural.
What’s your favourite spot or hidden gem?
Down at the dam is lovely, all the lookouts are great, the lookout just near the primary school is really cool. There’s a lot of good views and nice scenery, Kondalilla Falls is nice too.
What’s something people should know about Montville, that they might not know?
It’s a lovely place, everyone I know who comes up here thinks it’s a nice place to visit.
