Personal

All of the 'bits and pieces' information you may want to know about me can be found right here!

I was born in Melbourne which is a beautiful place to live, especially in the Autumn. After many years teaching and living in Australia my family and I, husband John (mathematics educator), daughter Violet Rose, left Melbourne and numerous family members (none of whom would dare follow in our footsteps) nearly 5 years ago to venture into the exciting but uncertain occupation of international teaching.

Our first international teaching positions in Zambia gave us an insight into the struggles within Africa and also an opportunity to travel through wonderful areas such as Zimbabwe, the southern part of South Africa and Botswana as well as Zambia.

Currently we are teaching in Kuwait and enjoying the sunny climate and another very different culture.
