| Introduction | Hello! I was born in San Mateo, CA, until I went to university at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo, obtaining a BS degree Fish and Wildlife Biology. I later became a zookeeper, then a PR executive. After several years, I decided helping people would be a better career and enrolled at Montana State University, Bozeman, MT, where I obtained a BS degree in nursing. This took me to Boston, Colorado, and Portland, OR. After a visit to Ireland, I decided to take up hobby farming. I started with chickens, then moved to a larger farm where I raised even more chickens, turkeys, and 3 rare breeds of sheep. After several years of farming, it was time for an international move. My Aussie Riley, 2 cats, Livvy and Bell, and I moved to Ireland, then Scotland, planning to there permanently. After 2 years, I was called back to Montana to watch over my elderly parents who were very ill. I purchased my parents’ home, had it completely remodeled, and sold it in 2021. I am now living and traveling in “Marivanne” with my Old English Sheepdog Hamish and kitty Livvy. Another new adventure is planned for April 2023. Come along for the fun! |
