Larry O'Sullivan, Irish short story and freelance Article writer now living in Thailand.
I am Irish, 55 years old and am now living in Thailand. I have a Bachelors Degree in Information Technology and have published some articles on “Search Engine Optimisation”. While in Ireland I wrote a weekly gardening column for the “Wicklow Times” and am a keen gardener, now discovering the huge differences between a temperate climate garden and a tropical climate one.
For the last 8 years I have been running my own business in the Tourism industry, first in France, then Portugal and now Thailand and have had some travel articles accepted both on the Web and in various magazines.
