Bio: At the age of 39 I quit my corporate job, sold my home and a bunch of my stuff, and bought a backpack and a one-way ticket to Zagreb, Croatia. After months of Googling "how to backpack" followed by seven months of solo travel through seven countries (plus a spectacularly unplanned land purchase in Indonesia), I returned to Canada and launched a new career as a writer. Years later, I'm grateful and more than a little astonished to still be living my two passions: writing and travelling. I never returned to corporate life, never purchased another home, and continue to purge my belongings.
