International Mom Story - Judy Wanjiku Wanderi Jørgensen
My name is Judy Wanjiku Wanderi Jørgensen. I am a journalist, creative writer, blogger, kitchen goddess, photographer, and mother of two Afro-Viking boys. I love to write about parenting, racial/cultural dynamics, and musings on this thing called life. At a very early age, growing up in Kenya, I became a voracious reader as an escape into a different world. Away from the overwhelming reality of growing up in dire social and economic circumstances.
And in 2009, through sheer force of will, I ended up at Aarhus University and Swansea University through a full scholarship from Erasmus Mundus. While in Europe and UK, I pursued a two-year MA in journalism, with a focus on war and conflict. In 2013, I got married and moved back to Denmark.
It is in this period that Memoirs Kenyan Mom Abroad blog was born. As a means for documenting my immersion into a new life abroad, a self preservation of sorts. Call it the law of attraction, but 7 years later, here I am.
I have finally found my balance between two cultures. I am creating and living what once seemed like an elusive childhood dream. Through blogging, I have picked up invaluable handy content creator skills: SEO copywriting, CMS, and Social Media Marketing.
