My name is Sonia Ghabrial (née, Mattha). I was born to Egyptian parents on the 15 January 1949, in the suburb of Heliopolis “the city of the sun”, Cairo, Egypt. I attended the, then prestigious, French boarding school, in my time, of “Le Pensionnat Du Sacré-Cur D’Héliopolis.” Married in 1968 to my beloved husband Youssef Ghabrial (Joe), an orthopaedic surgeon, who became later on in life a very successful professor of orthopaedics, specialising in spinal surgery in Australia. Left Egypt for the UK in 1968. Became a mother to two beautiful daughters, Jehane and Nadine. Spent ten happy years in the UK, then emigrated to Australia with the family in 1978. Still living happily in Newcastle, NSW, for the past 46 years. Studied at the University of Newcastle where I have completed a Bachelor of Arts degree, majoring in the French language, and a Master Degree in Educational studies. I was blessed to become a grandmother to three beautiful grand daughters.

My sincere gratitude goes to all my dear family and my dear friends for all their kind support and encouragement to write my books. I am forever indebted to them.
