Who are the Buisson's?
Hi, I'm Debbie! Luke is around here too, but pigs will fly before you hear from him! We met in Houston, Texas in January 2006. After his relocation to New Orleans at the end of that year, I joined him 1.5 years later so we could start living our lives together. We said some nuptials at some point in there, and in 2012, we made a family decision ("family" means Luke and me) to fulfill our dreams of living overseas. Our expat adventures began in Aberdeen, Scotland, and eight months later we relocated again to London, England. Here we are today, living in one of the greatest cities in the world - it's unbelievable!

The Purpose of Buisson International
I started my blog in June 2012 to document our lives in Scotland, express the differences between the USA and the UK, and as a way for family and friends to keep up with us (aka make sure we are still alive). As time went on, life in the UK became "normal", so I had to rethink my purpose. Now, I mostly write about our travels and our London discoveries. I enjoy reading about other people's adventures, their travel tips, and the differences in other cultures. I want to give back to those who enjoy and do the same, so I do my best to portray our experiences in the most honest way possible.

Be Warned
-I ramble on and on and give way too many details.
-I post way too many pictures. In fact, multiply "way too many" by ten.
-I am a very high maintenance sleeper, so occasionally you might read about my lack of sleep... or a hotel's horrible pillows... or the hotel's lack of three pillows for just me. I like to think sleeping is my only high maintenance quality.
-I have a major obsession with FRIENDS, and that's an understatement.
-I was a math teacher back in the States, but now use my math skills to triple recipes for my garbage disposal of a husband. If a recipe knocks our socks off, I will share it with you.
-I put a lot of thought into what is a necessity, what is a luxury, and what will make my family happy. I base every penny I spend on those three things. (that is a roundabout way of saying that I am frugal)
-I am not a Fashionista, so I will never post about new fashion trends. In fact, I really don't like shopping (see previous warning).
-I bottle my feelings, so I have the occasional rant... through my blog.
-I am way behind on my posts. Like 40 or so.

Take a look around!
