My expat journey
Brisbane, Australia
Too many to mention. Two children, both grown up now, lots of volunteer work and even got to carry the Olympic Torch in the 2000 Olympic Torch Relay. Worked for a Federal Member of Parliament and then as editor of a local paper before starting my own business - The Redcliffe City News. Also, joined a friend in their business - M V Real Estate.
Journalist & Life Style Sale Consultant for M V Real Estate - a boutique real estate gency taht doesn't just sell houses but helps you achieve the Life Style you want to aspire to.
The weather! South east Queensland is a very relaxing place to live, work and play.
Not much!
Canberra, Australia
I worked for the Australian Public Service in a variety of government departments. Bred, showed & trained German Shepherd Dogs and did voluntary work for the RSPCA.
Computer programs.
It was organised and absolutely beautiful as well as being the centre of government in Australia. Lots of green areas for recreation and close to the Snowy Mountains.
In the winter it got very cold!
Sydney, Australia
Secondary school and uni, then went to work in a stock brokers office, at Sydney Uni and then moved to Nyngan in western NSW for 12 months.
Varied - mainly to do with accounts and computers.
It was where I grew up, what more can you say!
Derby, England
I went to school in Derby having moved as a baby from my birthplace - Portsmouth.
I have two - I am a journalist and own www.redcliffecitynews.com.au and jointly operate a boutique Life Style Real Estate Agency called M V Real Estate in south east Queensland.
