BERRY VICTORIA RAFFERTY-BROWN

I grew up in South Africa, then moved to the UK, and in late October, I relocated to Maple Ridge, BC. I am Canadian and I have no idea why it took me so long to come home. I absolutely love it here. My siblings and cousins live in Vancouver, and my son lives in Toronto - needless to say, I am here to stay.
