After that she moved to the US and traveled around, living in many cities on both coasts and in the north and south. She also traveled to Africa and Central Asia to work in humanitarian aid positions with the UN. She is currently working on her book about her experiences in Angola at the end of their war. Presently she lives in Portland, Oregon where she protects and rehabilitates houses no one else wants, while she continues to write both fiction and non-fiction. Writing is her greatest love and entertaining others with it is a close second.view less
