After many years as a Secondary School Art teacher I have recently said goodbye to full time work and am exploring new horizons as a freelance writer.
By nature I am a timid person but somehow my sense of adventure tends to get the better of me. In this I am encouraged by my partner who is always planning the next journey.

However I have made a start by buying a bicycle, catching the occasional bus and am now on the lookout for a good pair of walking shoes.
