Hi I'm Karen from Kent also known as @TheMIddleAgedBlogger on social media.

After living in a luxury home and having a professional career we moved to a 26 acre small holding 2 years ago. I am learning to be a full time farmer and educator for children with SEND on the farm, as well as adjusting to life in a much smaller farm house. Being around the animals and outdoors has been so good for my health, however adapting to living in a much smaller renovation home has been a challenge. Long gone are the days of me having a show home, it's now constantly covered in muddy paw prints and dust. I do what I can when I can and now have a happy work / home life balance.

I have been an ambassador for the Clean & Tidy Home Show for 3 years now. I love how inclusive the show is. I enjoy meeting visitors and brands at the show and can't wait to welcome you to this year.
