If you wanted to know about geography, you probably wouldn't have
chosen this page as the place to look...It may be great to see the
monuments and landscapes of foreign countries but it's the people that
make the real differences and similarities between places. Because we're a
new magazine and not everyone has heard of us (yet!) we'll have to talk
about our own experiences while we wait to hear about yours, so here is a
profile of Stephie Walker, your Teen Scene editor, to give you an idea of
what at least one Australian girl is like...

in Melbourne, Australia. Stephanie has brown eyes, brown hair with blonde
highlights, is tanned, tall and well-built. Funny and

Do you know someone who may be talking about running away
because of problems at home? Has someone you know run away but kept in touch
with you? Are you thinking of running away yourself? Please click on the
link to the Runaway Teens organization and then decide for yourself what is
the best you can do to try and help resolve the situation, whether yours or
someone else's. It can be hard, as a teenager, to see things from any other
perspective but our own. This website may help to make you, and anyone else
you want to tell about it, aware of the bigger picture. |
