When Amy’s grandma turned 30, she had three children and was thankful to finally live in a house with an indoor toilet. When Amy’s mum turned 30, she had a profession, a mortgage and was pregnant with her first child.

Amy Conway tours 30:60:80 in the lead up to International Women's Day
On Tour, from Friday February 12, 2016, until Friday March 11, 2016.
