My Story
Born in Nigeria, I grew up among an aboriginal community on the Tiwi Islands north of Australia, and moved to England at the age of eleven. After graduating in Modern Languages from Oxford, I spent nine years in Argentina, followed by a chapter in the UK and then six years on flower farms in Kenya, before moving to Spain, where I live in an Andalucían village that was once a gold mine.
My professional career has revolved around international education and I have recently qualified as a dramatherapist. My unprofessional career began at the age of nine with the unsolicited launch of ‘The Family Magazine’- and has continued as quirkily ever since.
I care about authenticity, wilderness, empathy, and open doors.
