Galvin Family

Originally from Melbourne, Australia, the Galvin’s have lived in Bangkok twice: firstly from 1994 to 1997 – before the Skytrain, subway, unleaded petrol and Starbucks!!! – and this stay since September 2004. Matthew was born in Singapore where we lived prior to Bangkok, and Katherine was born here in Bangkok in 1996. In between the Bangkok stays, the family moved back to Melbourne for 7 years.

John works quite near the Regent’s School Bangkok for a subsidiary of the Kantana Group, one of Thailand’s oldest and largest film studios. He is the Director of Post Production at Oriental Post, a 50-50 joint venture by Kantana and Loxley Video Post, which means he is responsible for everything done to the television commercial or movie after it is shot and before you see it on the screen.

Gina is a freelance personal trainer and also involved with the F.I.T. School in Ploenchit.

Matt is in Year 12, a skateboard always attached to his feet or a guitar in his arms, and Kate is in Year 8, a keen swimmer and lover of facebook.
