Come on a journey with me
|
A tale of railways, nomads, ice, Soviets, food, culture, beauty, humour and excitement...
' I can't recommend this book enough! I feel like I'm on the journey with Carrie... it's engaging, funny, and I've learned so much already... '
- Keeley O'Hagan Montagu
Come on a journey with Carrie, a young Australian with a notebook and an evocative ability to bring places you may have never seen to life through her words. See stretching grasslands 100km wide; hear the music of ice by a beach; smell some rousing local cuisine; grapple with challenging political history; and watch the earth's surface change through a train carriage window.
Ten countries, tens of thousands of kilometres, and a whole lot of adventure.
Readers are DELIGHTED by All Aboard!:
Reading this book was like taking a trip in real time, narrated by your entertaining Australian mate... I felt I was right beside the author as she stared in wonder at the world flashing past the windows of her carriage.
- Jacqueline Lambert, travel author
This book is a great read. By page 5 I was laughing out loud. A thoroughly entertaining travel guide.
- Angie McGowan
This is a wonderful book for anyone with a curious mind about how other people live under different political systems, in different climates, languages and cultures... It's immediate and engaging as we learn as much about Carrie as the people she meets. It's as if I were in the backpackers with her as she shares each day's events.
- Alan Raby
I love it. Every time I sit down for a cup of tea, I read more and reluctantly put it down. It is so engaging to travel with you and learn things you never would. You really should be proud of what you have achieved - intrepid adventures on your own in very culturally different countries, writing intimately, frankly and honestly in journals and then producing such a readable book. Fabulous.
- Sally Ord
