About this blog

I told myself I'd go back to Australia, so after 4 and 1/2 years, now seemed like no better time! I was thankfully allowed to take a 4 month extended leave of absence from my work to work and travel. So I planned to leave in January just as winter was starting to hit Wisconsin big time to go to Aussie summer which is beautiful! And then returning for Wisconsin summer which is equally as nice! Thanks for visiting and I hope you don't find this log too boring:-) ~ Nicole
