Liz Damiao (Lourenco) (1989)

I left SA in 1993 and moved to Portugal. I managed to stick it out there for 7 years but never really adapted but one great thing about my time there was that I met & married my lovely ex-South African husband (with Portuguese heritage like me!). We moved to London in 2000 and had Saskia in 2002 and Colby 2006 and now live in Colchester which is a great town to raise children in. I work as a PA to a Paediatrician & love my job! I also sell The Body Shop products in the evenings & do parties in peoples' homes - considering I was never that great putting make-up on, it's quite ironic I've ended up as a skin care & make-up consultant! It's loads of fun though & I meet new people all the time, which is what I enjoy most! Am hoping to come out to SA next year & see everyone!
