Those of us from Celtic and Scandinavian extraction have been "transplanted" here by our ancestry. Despite being a fifth-generation Australian (born and bred on Bondi Beach), I have always believed I am culturally and climatically challenged by being here. When I visit the UK and Ireland, I feel I am truly home. One of my sons, who has been in Scotland for 10 years (never been back home) feels the same. I get it, @LMARTI smh.com.au/national/after-th…

The final event at @BelgiumFest: Author and artist @HelenaBuckinx: “With imagination you can realise your dreams” A great conversation with @LMARTI about her book Travellers in Transit, a family novel about relationships, standing up for yourself and making choices.

I’ll never be the kind of traveller who can jet off overseas for three weeks with only carry-on luggage.
My defence of packing checked-in luggage is published in Melbourne’s @theage newspaper.

New mothers Natasha Baker of Great Britain 🇬🇧 and Denmark’s 🇩🇰 Katrine Kristensen claimed podium finishes at Chateau de Versailles at the Para equestrian in dressage. 🐴 Such impressive efforts after maternity leave. 🥈🥉
