About

It's always difficult to describe where I am from! I was born in England, my parents immigrated to South Africa when I was 8 years old. I immigrated to Australia when I was 26 years old. I have lived the longest in Australia and I love it, so call myself Australian. I got divorced in 2004 and headed off to England for a holiday. 7 years later I moved to Hong Kong with my new husband! I've been enjoying life here since April 2011.
