The British Isles, encompassing thousands of islands both big and small, are like sparkling rough-cut gems sprinkled into the North Atlantic. Discovering their diverse and jaw-dropping landscapes are like treasures waiting to be dug up. As a wonderful compilation of original short stories closer to home, Zoe Cano captures the very essence of Britain's natural beauty with eclectic travels she's taken over the years exploring England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales.Unsurprisingly, these journeys turn into mini adventures that include motorcycling around the legendary Wild Atlantic Way in Ireland, slowly exploring Wales on a scooter, living in a little camper van to discover the remote Scottish Highlands and bravely sailing across the English Channel during the total Eclipse of the Sun.With Zoe's never-ending appetite for experiencing new places, and always up for a challenge, these tales will make you chuckle out loud but also flood your roaming imagination.
From the outset of this 5,000 kilometre road trip odyssey, this free-spirited motorcycle traveller is pushed to her limits as a series of catastrophic cyclones come crashing through New Zealand. Along the way, Zoe encounters colourful people from all walks of life, including artists and musicians, sheep farmers, Maori fishermen, a healer, stargazers, fellow travellers, and even motorcycle gangs who'll all open her eyes and introduce her to the raw underbelly of the country. But the journey doesn't quite turn out as she'd planned, and extreme measures are needed to complete-and even survive-the Land of the Long White Cloud!
She had no money. No time. No motorbike. No experience for such a mammoth trip. But she had a clear vision. With gritted determination, she went all out to realize her dream of riding a Bonneville solo across North America on lesser-known roads. That summer would be the hottest on record. The heat was on to go out and succeed. This is an inspiring story written with passion to succeed, a true lesson in believing in yourself.
A classic road trip with a difference. As an encore to her recent cross-country ride, Zoe calls on her loyal road dog friend to join her for part of a 2000 mile odyssey on two British retro motorbikes. Zig-zagging along the tropical Gulf of Mexico and Atlantic coast in Florida, through the forgotten back roads of the Florida Panhandle, Alabama and Georgia, this adventure uncovers the many hidden gems of lesser known places in these beautiful Southern states and introduces the reader to the extraordinary people she encounters along the way. From areas of extreme wealth to dire poverty, music venues lost in time and near-misses on the road, these eclectic stories will make you shiver, cry and laugh out loud. Her curiosity for getting under the skin of America brings out a fresh new perspective for any sort of traveller.
