Not only it is leading in technology but it provides social awareness for issues that we are facing in current times globally - the bushfires which have been severely affecting Australia has been devastating. Being part of doing our bit in tackling climate change is incredible and this challenge provides me and my audience a chance to give back in a fun and interactive way, with a cause that is so close to my heart.
