Parkes Phoenix

Our Gal

July 6, 2017 By Maggi Barnard

Tiyana Towney

How long have you lived in Parkes and what do you like about living here?
I have lived In the the Parkes shire for 13 years. What I love about it is living in the country, walking down the street and getting a hello. It’s the little things I appreciate about our shire.

Where do you work and what do you enjoy about your work?
I perform – that’s what I do for work. Music has been a big part of my life since I was young and performing in front of people is all I’ve ever wanted to do, and now I’m finally doing it!

What do you do to unwind after work or on weekends?
What I like to do to unwind would be sit on the river for a fish, but since we are now in the colder weather I like to sit back and practice new songs inside on my guitar. It helps bring peace to the mind.

What are you really good at?
I’m really good at music and sports. I’ve always had a passion for both, and like to say I’m good at them.

If you could have a super power, what would it be?
If I could have a super power it would have to be time travel.

What is your pet hate?
My absolute pet hate would be when people chew too loud- it hits a whole other nerve in my body and drives me insane!

Tell us about your best holiday ever.
My best holiday ever would have to be when I was a youngen’ around about 8, when I went away to the snow with family, there’s a bit to much to say really but we had some fun times, and must I say cold!
