Author: B Mahoney

Barrie Mahoney worked as a teacher and headteacher in the south west of England, and quickly fell in love with the area. Later, he became a school inspector in England and Wales, and had the privilege of visiting many different schools. Barrie’s work in schools enabled him to witness many amusing incidents, and to listen to children’s views about life and the world in general. A new life and career as a reporter in Spain’s Costa Blanca, led Barrie and his partner to launching and editing an English language newspaper in the Canary Islands, where he now lives enjoying life in the sun as a columnist, author and broadcaster. Barrie’s books for expats and travellers include: Letters from the Atlantic, Expat Survival, Living the Dream and Message in a Bottle. His novels include Journeys and Jigsaws and Threads and Threats. All are available on Amazon, Kindle, iBooks and from all good bookshops.
