Airlie is the daughter of a local GP in Broken Hill. Her dad trained to be a doctor as a parent and so Airlie and her siblings moved around a lot as children.
The family moved back to Broken Hill when Airlie was in Grade 7 and she has remained here since.
Unfortunately, Airlie was bullied in high school in Broken Hill and eventually dropped out altogether. However, she has a strong work ethic and remained positive and looked for opportunities to be engaged in the community and to be creative.
She has made a themed wedding dress, built her own bed, altered her own clothes, acted in films and live shows, been a tennis coach and worked at Bells’ milk bar.
Airlie is renovating a house in town with her partner and wants to create a beautiful garden. She is currently studying primary education at university.  
A Home in the Outback is produced by Katherine Waite, an interviewer and writer based in Broken Hill, NSW. I also produce private life stories for family history. Please get in touch if that service interests you.

Music by Aimee Volkofsky - Heart is a desert from Dust Lust.
