Hobart, Australia - Born and raised in New Zealand, Fiona is also a citizen of Great Britain. Having lived in several countries, Fiona's experiences include, living in a remote Australian commune, spending time at Scotland's Findhorn Community, and undergoing training as a Hindu nun within the Nithyananda Dhyanapeetam Ashram in India. Also, while being forced to camp in seeking affordable and permanent residency, a few times, these occurrences along with childhood dreams and the difficulties as a sole parent and grandparent helped inspire Fiona to write: "A Whole New Life."
