Synopsis
In her first 66 years, Karen Christie lived and worked on six continents, moving at least 32 times. Every decade provided unique opportunities for a rich and rewarding life. Karen’s 20s took her from Norway and northern Canada to ‘Down Under’, circling the Pacific Ocean, both by plane and bicycle. By the end of that decade, Karen had learned to say, “Yes!” to life, and, “No!” to fear. This set her up with work assignments for the next four decades in these challenging places: famine-ridden Ethiopia in her 30s, post-conflict Bosnia in her 40s, war-torn Kandahar and Kabul, Afghanistan in her 50s and 60s, and Haiti after its horrific 2010 earthquake. How did it all come about? Hop on for the journey.
