She retraced her English father’s footsteps back to England, where she now lives and works as an interior designer. When not writing or designing, she can normally be found in the queue at Gatwick heading off somewhere new: she travels all over the world, but most often to her beloved Morocco, which she has been visiting regularly for over ten years.
