I've been writing down my memories of my childhood as a record for my kids and the rest of the extended family. Too many of them get lost or forgotten. Do you do the same, perhaps you'd like to take a trip down memory lane with me?
To give you a little bit of background, I grew up in Pakistan, the daughter of career missionaries, going to a boarding school in the foothills of the Himalayas and returning 'home' to the UK once every three years. I have also as an adult lived in New Zealand, Fiji and now Australia so my childhood and adult memories are, what you might call, unconventional. Happy reading!
