Lives in Los Angeles

Speaks None well

Registration: 11 March 2014

Twice I've found myself yanked out of my comfort zone of the fabulous Sydney to live in another country. It's not that I didn't want to BE an expat it's that you need to be careful what you wish for. I'm now in LA living amongst the rich and famous leading a so-called charmed life. So I started a blog with the view to starting my own sitcom. Some stories are funny and many aren't. I wish I was a traditional "trailing spouse" with the perks that go along with that gig but we've got to make the most of the opportunity that landed us here. Nice to meet you, I look forward to sharing stories with you.

Interests: eating, drinking, travelling, Reading & Writing, tennis

I am Self-employed.

We're 9% here plus there's a property tax. Anyway not about to buy here (I don't think) so we should be OK. Read More
