In today’s episode, I’ve interviewed Alice from Paris-Bourke. When Alice and her family arrived in Australia they lived in the outback for two years. What an adventure it was! Find out more about this little-known lifestyle and its challenges.

Alice is also a young crafty mum who designs beautiful games and toys for her children. She is the creator and maker of The Map Game, which has an Australian and a French edition and which you can try and buy at Paris to Provence (Melbourne French Festival) – or online.

It’s time to get inspired, get creative and get playful!
