Hola a todos!

I'm living my dream...how many people can say that? I've always wanted to be a Missionary and a Teacher so here I am doing both and living in South America!

I speak English at home and Spanish when I'm out and about. Living in Latin America has made me an agressive driver. I get about on a motorbike and I'm good at dodging stray dogs and potholes :)

My amazing little family live this crazy, wonderful life with me...who are they you ask? My Husband of nearly 20 years, Glenn and our three beautiful children, Rebecca (14), Sarah (11) and Joshua (9). The kids speak better Spanish than their parents do, it's just not fair!

I've always wanted to study for a Bachelor of Education so here I am trying to do just that. I wish I had done it before I had a family. It can be a bit of a juggling act trying to manage my different hats of Wife, Mum, Missionary, Teacher and Student.

This is what I think about life. Life is too short to live with regrets. We only have one life to live so make the most of it. Take more risks and don't be afraid of failing. That's the best way to learn :0

Adios!
