Rachel is a freelance writer who has recently returned to live
in Rarotonga. It was a love for the relaxed island pace of life,
and the beauty and warmth of the Cook Islands and its people,
which made it an easy decision to move back after three years of
living in Christchurch, New Zealand. Her freelance and fiction
work has featured in a number of online and print magazines,
and she now combines freelance, fiction and policy writing with family life.
