Coffee & Geography 2x19 Shanique Harris (UK)

Kit and Shanique Harris sip some Jamaican mint bush tea, chatting about inclusion in geography education, being catholic, amongst other things! Shanique is the protagonist of her life. Energetic and curious, and loves to set herself challenges. Shanique centers herself around God and fitness as she knows that by doing that she can be spiritually and physically prepared to face her life as a working single mother to two children. Shanique is a lover of learning aiming to learn something new in her daily encounters with people and places. She also says she is far from perfect!
