I guess I'd better say hi. I'm living in Kentucky, been here for 18 months. Love living in the US, but sometimes need a translator, despite speaking English(well it is the South!)
Born in Wales 32 years ago, but parents emigrated to South Africa when i was 6. Lived in Botswana after that and went to school in Rhodesia/Zimbabwe. Dad believes that travel is best education so was fortunate to travel around South America, US and Europe as child. Went to boarding school in UK for last few years of High School and my sister and i became addicted to scoring upgrades (in days before FF).

Went to Medical School in London, and travel restricted to pleasure, and limited by cash!!but am addicted to getting cheapest deals to exotic places!

Sent to Louisville, to do some Research, and told colleagues that liked travelling. Don't think they realised how much until managed to get away at least once a month for last year. Joined lots of FF but now travel mainly CO/VS transatlntic and UA around US.
I love this forum as it proves that its not just me addicted to getting miles, getting upgrades etc. Managed to score 2 elusive operational transatlantic upgrades, one VS in Dec, and UA in March so am v happy at moment.

Thanks for all the advice/ info etc
