There's No Place Like Oz

Subscribe by: Email / RSS
After years of wondering what it would be like to live abroad, I decided to find out. At 30 I left my job and home in the USA to live, travel, eat(!), and work in Australia for a year. Now, I’m a 30-something back in the US, working with university students, baking and learning about food, enjoying life with my Brit, and plotting the next adventure.
