Came of age on Okinawa in the 1960s and have spent my career abroad, only occasionally landing in the US for a couple of years. Raised 3 wonderful daughters solo, in Egypt for 5 years, and they now have international careers. US bases are Seattle and Colorado. In Bangkok for granddaughter until they relocate in Sept. '18. Working now as a Health Coach and continue health/wellness writing.
