Moving to Tonga then to Fiji early 2006 for 3-4 years with my husband Stan. Keep family and friends connected. See pictures of my amazing adventures, read about my experiences and thoughts. Let me know how you are doing. Creating a space that allows me and you to stay connected with each other.

Another interesting thing to me is the photo of you and your mom...the way your bodies are positioned you look like the beautiful wings of an exotic butterfly!
Take another look!
