Content

Have you been backpacking with your daughter in India? Been ripped off at the Zimbabwe border – or anywhere? Inadvertently become a hatchery for the African Putse-fly – with only a jar of Vaseline and a steady hand between you and blood poisoning?

Kate Nivison caught the travel bug (sometimes too literally) whilst working in Africa, and raising a family there. She finds that a ‘keep calm and carry on’ approach helps when things go pineapple-shaped. Kate reveals the fun and bumpy bits of travelling. She has also created some inspiring short stories to brighten your journeys or have you reaching for your passport, whether you are a born escapist or an armchair traveller.
