I was reading an interesting suggestion from expat inspirer about writing our life stories in 6 words and thought this would be fun to do!

“I’ve been to the Families in Global Transition conference in Houston and had a wonderful time among friends old and and new, learned a lot, laughed a lot and drank too many margaritas. I was inspired by one of my fellow speakers, Apple Gidley, who suggested we might write our life stories (bear it in mind that those who attended FIGT were ‘global nomads’ like me) in six words.

She gave the examples of:

Roast beef to barbecue via noodles

For sale baby shoes never worn

I guess mine might be:

lakes to canals via sand dunes

what would yours be?

    In reference to my self doubting attitude I have decided my new motto with be, “Today I’m proving myself wrong!” I am the queen of excuses. Just because I lived 13 years abroad does mean that I can’t be successful in anything I do.
