Taryn's Adventures

This blog is to capture our wonderful memories of our travels abroad - Boston (19 June 2012 - 15 June 2013), London (29 September 2013 - 5 July 2014) and Oxford (1 October 2015 - Current). A tale of two South Africans living abroad... a poet/husband/advisor/eternal optimist studying political Theory at Oxford University, wanting to better the world, and me, a third generation Chinese South African who is the Executive Director of READ to RISE and children's book illustrator.

Exploring Keble College (Oxford University)

Last Friday, I walked around Keble College along Parks Avenue in Oxford. It's a grand college with a huge square of bright green lawn surrounded by residences and the Keble Chapel. A beautiful college! How amazing must it be to be a student here.

Meeting up with Safricans

It was lovely to meet up with fellow Safricans Lynn and Dale (and kids) on Saturday in Oxford. We just showed them around Hertford College and had a bite at All Bar One. It was cold and rainy, a miserable 6 degrees but was lovely nonetheless to see some familiar faces :)
