Gillian Bouras is an Australian writer who has been based in the Peloponnese, Greece, for more than 30 years. She has had eight books published; another (Seeing and Believing) is accessible via her website. Her journalism has been published in six countries. She has three sons and three grandsons, with one son living permanently in Australia, so she herself has had to learn to live with 'the divided heart'. But Gillian herself will always be Aussie.
