Both my parents came to Australia with a suitcase each. Both worked hard & eventually ended up living in Albany for 45 years. One of the highlights of my Mother's life was that Mum was priviledged to cook for the Duke of Edinburgh.

An incredible family. Both Marta and Peteris are an example that through hardwork and perseverance, anything can be achieved.
