00:00Well, you know, I was 19 when lockdown first happened. I'm now 24 turning 25, I guess maturing.
00:08I don't know if that's more to do with COVID or if that's just because I'm older now, but
00:12I did definitely feel a switch personality wise from being like this young teenager to
00:18then suddenly feeling like an adult by the end of it.
00:22Everything. So that's when I started doing tree planting. So it's since then that I've
00:24been doing a lot more moving around. So rather than just having a job, like it's nine to
00:29five, I'm choosing when I work. A lot more choice in what I'm doing, a lot more where
00:34I'm going to be and seeing a lot more of the country rather than staying in one place and
00:38being a lot more sedentary.
00:39During lockdown they shut the churches and that was criminal.
00:44I moved out because of COVID, like I was living with my parents and I was, it was too much.
00:48I was like, I need my independence. And that's really what started my course of going into
00:52the adult world.
00:53I had 27 ministers and one priest to go to court to get them to open them again.
