Natural Disasters

Hi Podcast Listeners!! Sorry it's been a bit longer than usual to get a story to you.  Things have been pretty crazy around here in the last month! But here we are. This episode of teller2teller has two stories, both about natural disasters and volunteering to help out when its needed. For those who experience floods, cyclones etc, it can no doubt be pretty life changing. But what about the people who go to provide help? It has a big effect on them too. Both of today's stories are from people who have volunteered at sites of natural disaster in Queensland. One story titled "It changes you" was submitted anonymously. The second story, "Larry" was written and read by Kirstie, a regular teller2teller contributor. Kirstie is a young author from here in Brisbane. Kirstie has written some fantastic stories, some of which she has shared here on teller2teller, but if you would like to read more of her work, head over to Kirsties blog . If you would like to read more about the storms and cyclones in today's episode have a look at the following links for a range of information and images:
