Jennifer Barnes Eliot
Jennifer was born and raised in the mid-
Atlantic region of the United States. After stints in
Washington, DC, and New York City, where she
worked as a marketing professional, she and her
husband and two young children set off for a
two-year posting in Bangkok, Thailand. Two years
turned into 11; one posting turned into four; toddlers turned into teenagers.
Along the way, she’s continued to write and pursue her love of photography,
and has worked in marketing, communications and development. She’s
learned to speak conversational Thai, a decent amount of Turkish, a
smattering of Cantonese and a few Hindi phrases. Her hope one day is to
really master a second language that’s used in more than one country.
Rebecca Simpson
Rebecca grew up in Australia, but now calls
Hong Kong home. Arriving in Asia years ago for a
dream PR role, she delighted in spending much
of her time flying around the region, getting paid
to talk about beauty products. In between new
creams and the latest beauty regimes, she found
love. Before long, two rascally daughters had grounded her and the dream
was over. She now works from their floating family home on Lantau, writing
and living a new dream. One day they will cast off and sail away forever, but
until then you can reach her via becsimpsonhk.wordpress.com
