edit data

I grew up in the northern suburbs of Melbourne and married a soldier at the age of 29. What followed was the stuff books are made of! The following 21 years saw us through 9 postings, 2 deployments, 1 diplomatic posting, 15 jobs, countless job interviews, and 1 brain tumour (which I survived, by the way (spoiler alert!)).

More than nine years ago we decided to retire to the road and become permanent grey nomads. Sold up and gave away the whole lot in 2011 and have been travelling around Australia ever since.

I live on a steady binge diet of Game of Thrones, House of Cards, and Suits. At the moment my addiction of choice is Australian Survivor when we have television reception, that is!
