About

Come from Gourock in Scotland and now living in Hakadal just outside Oslo. Here with my famlily, hubby Stian, two beautiful daughters and our cat. I am Langauages Grad. from Glasgow Uni but have retrained as a Montessori teacher and work in a local Forest nursery. Love the outdoors and am constantly in awe of the beautiful Norwegian nature. It's like therapy just to go a walk in the forest here.
Interests: family, , movies, nature, montessori, friends
