G'Day Mate!
This morning, we were delighted to welcome a visitor from 'down-under'.
Brooke Bannister, of the Rotary Club of Lane Cove (in the Sydney, Australia area), was visiting her family in Norfolk and used the opportunity to speak to us about her background and current circumstances in Australia.
Most interesting that Brooke began her worldly wanderings from Norfolk County as a Rotary Exchange Student sent off to Belgium. That experience led to other life experiences in Mexico, Chile, Spain and finally Australia where she has been settled for 14 years. Another RI Youth Development success story!
As she concluded, and with all of her international experiences, Brooke couldn't help but remark her gratitude for the Rotary start we had offered her as well as on the natural beauty we are blessed with in Norfolk - we all agreed!
