Becky’s childhood holidays were spent exploring England squished into a tiny car with her four siblings. One summer they went to Kent – ‘The Garden of England’. She was entranced by it and dreamed of living there. In 2002, her dream became true when she moved to the lovely little market town of West Malling and later, in 2021, to the Kent coast.
