My work: Interior designer
I spend too much time: Pottering about my garden & painting
I'm married to Dennis for 35 years with 2 adult children. I live in Phalaborwa, South Africa, originally from the UK. I've returned to Africa after a stint in the UK and Abu Dhabi. I'm passionate about gardening, crafting, painting my masterpieces in my studio and up-cycling furniture and objet. Protecting natural environments. I love cooking delicious food and baking sourdough bread. I cherish my tropical haven near Kruger National Park, surrounded by wildlife sounds and lush gardens.
