About Me

My photo
Tokyo, Japan
I'm an Aussie who's lived in Japan since 2000. My husband, David, teaches at an American international school – Christian Academy in Japan (CAJ) in Tokyo. We’ve raised our three sons in Japan, but they’re now all adults and live in Australia. I edit a magazine, am social media manager for OMF Japan, and write freelance articles among many other things. Another label some give us is missionaries. Combine all of this and I find heaps to write about. I'd love to hear from you. You can reach me here: marshallwendy034 at gmail.com
