Jane is a homes and interiors journalist for magazines such as 25 Beautiful Homes, Good Homes and House Beautiful, and finds writing about house projects the perfect excuse to meet people and ask (lots of) questions. She has had stints of living in Canada, Greece, Spain, Ghana and New Zealand. Nowadays, she lives with her husband, two teenagers and their labradoodle by the coast in Hove, where she enjoys the beach and can often be found in local cafés writing, reading--and giving in to the temptation of a homemade brownie.
