From the Foreword by Jane Goodall PhD, DBE United Nations Messenger of Peace: "This book tells the fascinating story of a passionate, talented and, above all, warm-hearted woman, determined to stay true to her vision, to live out her dream, and to learn all she can from the world around her. It will inspire and encourage you to follow your dreams, to live life to the full, take all it has to offer and - most importantly - to give back in full measure".
English poems included.
