Story

When I lost my beautiful mother, it acted as a catalist for a big family life change. My family left a comfortable life in the suburbs of an English City to move to Bright , a rural town in North East Victoria.

The journey from concept to arrival in Melbourne was long but we always felt that the decision was the correct one.

Upon arrival 3 things hit home during those first 48 hours in Australia. The blue skies , the heat and the persistent flies. We quickly made Bright our home, closer to my two brothers, living a fantastic outdoor lifestyle we soon bought a home and gained Citizenship in 2008.
