Born in Canada and abandoned as a baby, Catherine DeVrye was adopted by loving parents in Calgary. When she was 21 they died of cancer within a year of each other. An only child, Catherine packed her bags for Australia, arriving jobless and near penniless. This led to a lifelong journey to find her place in the world. She waited tables, taught school, worked on a mine site and went on to become a public servant. She then joined IBM, who sent her on postings to Tokyo, Hong Kong and New York. Named Australian Executive Woman of the Year, Catherine found herself dining with princes, prime ministers and Olympic athletes. She also cycled over the Andes, dived with sharks, and climbed Mount Kilimanjaro. Yet, still something was missing. So eventually Catherine decided to return to Canada and search for her biological parents. And that's when her adventures really began...
