Rowenna is an Australian woman who lives in San Francisco with her American husband David.

Hi, I’m Rowenna. I’m Australian. I come from Melbourne, but now I live in San Francisco,
California, with my husband David. He’s American. David and I run an art gallery. It’s a
gallery for Australian Aboriginal art. I just love Aboriginal art. I love all the colors and shapes.
I’m preparing a new exhibition right now. I came to the US in 2006 as a student. My parents
wanted me study law, but I didn’t like it, uh, I hated it in fact. I left school after three months
and got a job in an art gallery. That’s where I met David. Then, we had the idea of opening
our own gallery just for Aboriginal art, because most American people don’t know anything
about it. That was in 2006, and we borrowed $25,000 from the bank to do it. We’re lucky
because the gallery’s really successful and we paid the money back after just five years. I go
back to Australia every year. I usually go when it’s winter in the US because it’s summer in
Australia. But I’m not going next year because I’m going to have a baby in December. It’s
my first so I’m very excitedAudio script Hi, I’m Rowenna. I’m Australian. I come from
