Here are the adventures of a fifty-something woman, who liberated herself from the daily grind of Corporate IT after 25 years, leaving behind friends and family to embark on the best challenge of my life.
The above menu will take you to my previous adventures prior to the world turning upside down.
And now the adventure continues..
Where does the time go?
Wow, time flies… back at the end of September I took on our first piece of work as InCahoots.Tech. This was to create a website for Hypnotherapist Mike Wilson, and was an opportunity for me to try out my Principles of design. It also gave me the chance to go for a jolly across the … Continue reading Where does the time go?
In Cahoots
Amazing things have been happening to me, in that doors have opened as my mind and soul have healed and rejuvenated, I didn’t realise how broken I was when I first left the UK after nearly 25 years working in Corporate IT.

This is the whole of the West coast from Sines … Continue reading Settling in nicely

It was dark when … Continue reading Careful what you wish for
Here I go again on my own
In my absence the world has turned upside down and inside out. My ferry was cancelled, Portugal / Spain borders closed and flights restricted. All my plans for the summer working at Festivals in the UK with MyCause and Oxfam cancelled. Being so far from family was challenging and so I caught the last flight … Continue reading Here I go again on my own
