ANZA Anecdotes: Gary

Gary - Currently at the beach in Lennox Head, NSW

Vice President 2019

I am busy in retirement, supporting my children and family and renovating our home.

It is nice to be back in Australia and to refresh our social networks here.

It has been wonderful to see the continuing great work of ANZA through social media and also to see the individual adventures of some of those families I met whilst in Jakarta.

Being the MC at the 2019 Melbourne Cup festivities was a definite highlight.

My time with ANZA was brief but filled with wonderful experiences. Engaging with the children and staff at Yayasan Sayap Ibu orphanage and coordinating outings was the most rewarding part of my ANZA association.

The social network that ANZA provides for expatriate individuals and families is simply fantastic.

As a “first time” expatriate I was, and am still in amazement of the extensive work ANZA does both for expatriate families and for local families.

Humanity is at the forefront of ANZA activities.
