Bright – Daniel Cross

How long have you lived in the area?

I've lived in the area most of my life. I was born in Myrtleford and went to Myrtleford Primary School then spent my high school years at Wangaratta High School. After spending seven years at university in Bendigo and working in Eildon, I've moved back to the valley at the start of 2021. All in all that puts me at 21 years in the area.

What do you do?

I run my one business called Bright Pressure Washing. I can do any domestic pressure washing jobs including driveways, slabs, stonework or roofs.

What are your hobbies and interests?

I love to mountain bike, ski and fly my paraglider. Not a surprise really that I ended up in Bright.

What do you like about the area?

I really love living in the mountains. Being able to head up to the snow or even just looking at the snow capped mountains from the valley. I'm also a big fan of the active community we have in the valley. If you do really any kind of activity, you can't help but make friends.

Where would you take visitor's coming here?

Definitely to Mt Buffalo. It's just such a unique place and the views you get from the top are amazing.

Is there anything you would change about the area?

Apart from the housing prices I wouldn't change a thing.
