An Unreasonable Woman: April 2011

55 Years Ago...

When I was 27 years old, I boarded the MS Oslofjord and set sail for the Land of the Midnight Sun: Iceland, Norway, Sweden, Denmark, and Finland. My plan was to work my way around the world playing jazz accordion, and that is exactly what I did. I ended up visiting and living in 67 countries, I became the first woman to drive a Land Rover from England to Kathmandu, was kidnapped and questioned by Turkish police, was offered a job by the CIA, was cured of asthma by an indigenous doctor in Kashmir, managed a clinic in a Tibetan refugee camp in Nepal, and stood against death threats to write and publish the first ever "Who's Who of Black South Africans." And that's only part of my story, which I have recently published as An Unreasonable Woman, In Search of Meaning Around the Globe (Press 53). I plan to use this blog to talk about my journeys and experiences, share photos and answer questions for those interested.
