I am Yvonne Christensen, an entrepreneur, mother of five daughters (yes, five!), wife, carer, photographer, and world traveler. I was born in the United Kingdom, however, my roots lie in Nigeria, where both of my parents were born. I have lived in several countries apart from the UK, including Germany, Denmark, and most recently, Switzerland.
I often think of myself as a nomad, roaming and learning as I travel around the globe. My children have been the center of my life, however, now that they are living their adult lives, I have decided it is time for me to explore and share my adventures with all of you who have common interests and passions through my blog — YSC Life.
