Produktbeschreibung

After twenty years off the mosquito menu, the author returns to the Land Down Under and has a few adventures along the way as she encounters a host of pesky insects, the man who transforms potholes from death traps to works of art, and the sea captain who's stubbornly superstitious about bananas... Meet these and more in this humorous, informative & reflective travel tale. ★★★ Semi-finalist Chanticleer International Book Awards 2019 ★★★ Alannah Foley is a soul from two worlds. Born in Australia, she was raised in England, but in her twenties, a yearning for her roots sent her back to her birthplace, where she spent five years. To her surprise, she got more than she bargained for along the way, discovering long-lost family, experiencing new lifestyles, and being regularly used by mozzies for target practice. After a yawning chasm of two decades back in Old Blighty, she returns Down Under but with some trepidation. Would life in her old Aussie stomping ground be the same? And would anyone recognise her, what with all that greying hair? But that's not all she has to contend with. There's also her age-old fear of sharks, the pre-dawn chorus delivered wholesale by the cockerels at her sister's farm, and a sea captain who's convinced her banana-eating is scuppering his whale-watching tour. Join the author as she traces over old haunts and new vistas in this humorous, informative & reflective travel tale set in sunny and sometimes not so sunny! Australia.

Autorenporträt

Alannah Foley... aka The Pyjama Writer

Author of fantasy adventures, fun mysteries, travel tales, and other maverick titles that won't fall in line...

Raised in the UK, Alannah lived in her Aussie birthplace for five years in her twenties, where mozzies regularly used her for target practice. She managed to return to Old Blighty devoid of shark or snake bite, however, and currently lives in picturesque Cornwall with her cycling-obsessed partner.

She is an international book award finalist and multi-genre author best known for her series of fantasy adventures inspired by fairy tales and her mysteries starring laid-back Aussie Scott Chevalier.

Alannah has also written about her travel capers, both in a campervan and Down Under (not both together - yet!), and has a handful of other oddball titles to her name. Most of her work comes with a sprinkle of humour.

Outside of writing, she is the founder and head owl at Book Lover Merch, where she designs physical and digital goodies for book lovers to enjoy.

When she's not immersed in creative pursuits, she likes to hit the trails on her bike, take walks in nature, or go kayaking basically, anything that will get her butt out of the chair for a while that doesn't involve going to a sweaty old gym.
