229: From Paris To Paddocks, this is Milly Taylor’s Story


Listen Later

Milly Taylor grew up near Paris. And she never intended to live on a farm, let alone a farm in Australia. But while on a University exchange to Melbourne where she was studying aero-space engineering, Milly met Michael Taylor. Michael was also studying engineering, but he had always planned on returning to his historic family’s farm, Taylors Run, located in Kentucky, New South Wales. They were living in Melbourne when they welcomed their first child, and still there when they fell pregnant with their second. It was then that the Taylor’s decided to return home to Taylor’s Run. And it was a far cry from Paris, to say the least! Milly felt very isolated at times, with little connection outside Michael’s parents and their family unit. Eventually, she convinced Michael to pack up their three children and move to Paris for a year. Milly has been in Australia for 25 years, she has an incredible story and a beautiful accent. This is her story.
