My favourite place is the world will always
be home….
Over the years I
have travelled to many places, enjoyed every minute of that travel and it has
provided settings for my books, but I love coming home.
Perhaps
as I am older I appreciate what my hometown offers more than I did years
ago. The serenity and prettiness of the
‘city of churches’, the friendships formed over the years and the amenities
that Adelaide has to offer are just a few of the things that bring me home.
Highlights of my
travel include; the dazzle of Vegas on a hot summer night; Los Angeles shopping
precincts and the infamous Whiskey a Go-Go night club (named after the first
discothèque, the 'Whisky à Go-Go', established in Paris in 1947); the
sixties hippy vibe of Haight Street in San Francisco; the gentle and respectful
culture of Yokohama and the Japanese people despite the size of the city; and
the Australian countryside with it’s own unique laidback culture and ambience.
Still I love
Adelaide the best. We have glorious
parklands surrounding our city, miles of the most beautiful beaches and
stunning views from our eucalyptus scented foothills. Our wine is world class, our higher education
draws students from all over the world and our restaurants are second to none.
There is nothing not to love.
I understand the
need for our children to spread their wings and see the world but I hope they
all come home to nest, bringing with them their new found knowledge and
experience from living abroad. And I
hope they let their children grow up in a city that I will always call home.
Do you feel the
same way about your hometown?
Warmest regards
Susanne
