became an fascination — and I wasn’t of, course, the only one
fascinated with seeing what lie beyond. Most of my generation was just
as infatuated as I was.

on a WHV. I came for a year and had an absolute ball. During that year,
I met Aaron (my now husband) an Aussie living in Far North QLD. When my
WHV expired, I returned back to the UK, worked for 5 months and then
