Traveling over a hundred and seven countries has given me the opportunity to experience some incredible cultures. Sharing what I have seen, tasted and felt with others drives me to want more. Four books have been published this spring which deal with my travel experiences from a journalists point of view as well as a mother bonding with her teenage daughter with Stone Age people in the jungles of New Guinea. My travels in and out of over 100 countries, allow you the reader to sit on my shoulder and feel the dense jungle growth slice my arms, hear my screams at the sight of three naked Mursi men holding AK 7’s to my chest and taste the hot oil dripping from crispy beetles. The books listed below were written to encourage understanding of cultures unlike our own.All books are available in book form or Kindle format at www.Amazon.com“How to Become an Escape Artist” A Travelers Handbook has earned a gold seal for its cover by winning both the Royal Palm Literary Award and the Beverly Hills International Writing Awards contest.“100 People to Meet Before You Die” Travel to Exotic Cultures has earned two first place awards.
