About the author
Andrew is a retired police officer and union official who lives in Adelaide, South Australia. He has travelled internationally since he was 20 years old when he went to the UK to meet his relatives. For many years, Andrew was a solo traveller—and was quite surprised when some years later he found he didn’t mind travelling with a companion! Andrew Dunn currently sits as an independent nonexecutive board member and volunteers as an Adelaide Greeter. He is still working on getting a downsized home for retirement—he’s on number four. He has always said that when he is too old to fly around the world on jet planes he’ll see Australia in a Winnebago. Andrew has lived in Australia and Hong Kong.
