This is our family. We love books and reading. We all love Jesus, people, travelling, freedom and justice.

Rosemary is a web content manager, and a storyteller. She likes to sing and find about anything,  these days often on the Internet.

Roger is a gifted teacher and  lateral thinker. His red beard and hair and his knack of seeing the whole picture are his trademarks. He has a passion for literature, sustainable development and human rights. He is doing a PhD in Creative Writing.

We like travel. Here are some of the Journeys

Meryki Amaryllis Keturah was born 7 May 1980. She is a superb computer whizz with a zest for life. She's fantastic at learning new things and is very adaptable. She also plays the saxophone and is a rower. She is at the University of Western Australia studying Computing, Maths, Psychology and Anthropology.

She is running for the Senate in the elections for the new party What Women Want

Her skills are especially in networks and ISPs: her fasciantion is the changes computers make to people and their lives.

Her lovely long blonde hair used to be her trademark, but now it's short and changes without notice! Noteworthy is the enthusiasm she brings to erverything. She makes a wonderful mother!
