CELEBRATING HOME

AFTER LIVING ABROAD for several years and with three children aged under five, Western Australian couple Fliss and David Brophy felt the irresistible pull of home. Having grown up on a dairy farm on the south-west coast of the state, Fliss was yearning for the wide spaces and the windswept curve of sand and surf she knew as a child. “We decided that it would be a good time to return to Australia so the kids could have the country upbringing I had,” says the 43-year-old.
