It&#8217;s difficult to believe that my book\u00a0is already two years old!! It\u2019s been an amazing couple of years for me since the book launch and thanksgiving party in Oslo!<br \/>\nIt\u2019s literally taken me Around the World in 79 events (talks, courses, Around the Garden tours etc.). This year has taken me to Japan, I&#8217;ve visited and given courses and talks at some famous gardens in the UK from Wardington Manor to Prince Charles&#8217; Highgrove and I had a memorable tour of eastern Scotland (Edinburgh Botanics, Teeny Weeny Farm, Aberdeen and Findhorn)! I visited 3 botanical gardens in Norway, but the 400 people that turned up for my guided tour of the botanical gardens in Trondheim (1 in 5 bought the book!) surprised us all and was a real highlight :) Wherever I\u2019ve been I\u2019ve met amazing folk who are making a real difference in the<span class=\"text_exposed_show\">ir communities and I\u2019m thankful to have many new friends around the world! Thanks to everyone who has helped along the way &lt;3. \u00a0I don\u2019t plan to \u201cretire\u201d from plants just yet, so I will hopefully meet many more of you next year&#8230;and there are already many events planned for next year, from Canada, England, a tour with Arche Noah in Austria, the great Gothenberg botanical gardens and the wonderful Danish island Bornholm. I&#8217;ll also be teaching on a PDC in Trondheim and will be a talking at a film festival!
