Author Biography
After an eleven year career in banking Peter changed the focus of his life to jobs which specifically help other people. Utilising practical skills in management, organising and coordination he returned to college, to prepare for a new life working alongside the most disadvantaged people. Seven years later he returned to study the management of international development programmes. Work assignments took him and his (then) young family to live initially in Kabul, Afghanistan. Later assignments were in the U.K, Kenya, India, Thailand and Malaysia. Most of these jobs entailed frequent travelling throughout East Africa, Indian sub-continent, South East Asia, China & Mongolia. Subsequent work with an international NGO for development of medical, rehabilitation and education services for blind and visually impaired people led to frequent work assignments in many countries; India, Sri Lanka, Pakistan, Bangladesh, China, Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam, Guyana, Jamaica, Nigeria, Ghana, South Africa, Uganda and Kenya. With all that travelling, enough for a lifetime, Peter now writes from home in New Zealand, with the previous world experiences influencing his outlook and writing.
