Description

Hi we are Shelley and Liz. We first met at work nearly 20 years ago and have become firm friends, even travelling abroad together on a regular basis. Both of us live in Northampton UK. Whilst Shelley was born locally, Liz was born in Oslo, Norway to Norwegian mother and British father. The family relocated to the UK in 1989 to be closer to elderly grandparents. We are both very family and community orientated. Liz has one son, who is now 26 years old and a fellow explorer. Not a surprise as she started taking him abroad regularly from the age of 2. Shelley lives with her mum and cousin who she helped foster, when his mother could not look after him. She helped raise him from a young age and he is now a healthy happy young man.
