When I came to Australia to live I didn’t have strong English skills so I couldn’t speak well and I couldn’t understand anyone. I worked in a café as a barista. I watched the chef in the kitchen and he was happy to show me how a kitchen worked. It was from then that I really found my love for the kitchen.
