I'm a just-turned-50 Australian, who's arrived in Boston for a year, as the 'trailing spouse' of a visiting professor at Harvard. At home I work part-time as a teacher of editing in a writing program, and part-time as a freelance writer and editor. I also spend a lot of time at our house in the country, developing a permaculture property. We have a 19-year-old daughter, and are blessed that she has chosen to come to Boston and share this adventure with us.
I joined expat.com on 19 October 2011.
