About the author

Hello! Thank you for taking time to read or review my book. As a self-published author, it is so exciting to have so much community support. It started as a way to document some of my travel adventures as well as fill my time while I waited for a double-lung transplant and has grown to become something that I will always cherish.

If you would like the e-version, it is available at my blog, blogofalley.blogspot.ca.

Fantastic stories told by an adventurous young woman. I thoroughly enjoyed the account of her cycling trip, as well as the accounts of her adventures abroad.

This is a good book. The author is blunt at times but tells good stories of her trip across the country and other adventures while dealing with health problems. A real inspiration person.

I loved this little book. It's written by a natural storyteller with a gift for seeing the humour in situations that most of us would give up on. I shed some tears, a laughed out loud and I smiled a lot. A great read on a cold winter's night or a warm summer's day in a comfy hammock.
