A burnt-out media executive. A chance to leave it all behind. Can she take that leap into the unknown, or is she doomed to fail?

Alison was stuck going nowhere. Her shiny career had well and truly lost its lustre, despite the money her TV bosses were offering.

When she spotted an opportunity for her other half Down Under, could she leave behind a well-paid job and all that was familiar to up sticks?

When the restoration on the couple’s dream home became unaffordable, they were off once again, crisscrossing the planet in a whirlwind journey of love, life, and passports.

A heart-warming and humorous true story, that proves sometimes love leads us on the most unexpected journeys. You’ll love this fun, globetrotting adventure if you like stories about brave but foolhardy risk-takers, quirky characters, and amusing tales from departure lounges and arrival halls.
