Summary

From No. 1 best selling Self-Help, Counselling and Travel author Pearl Howie

A dream come true.

But more than that.

A dream I had given up on, hidden from myself, brought to light, and then realised. And yet, the first time I saw orangutans in Semenggoh, semi-wild, it was not the experience I had hoped for.

Sarawak is so much more than orangutans, and in coming here to visit them I learned so much more about their world, our world and my own world.

I had so many reasons for writing these books - to provide a quick guide for people who think travelling to a special place is beyond them and to enlighten people as to the magic that exists in certain spots, but these are also just simple storiesโ€ฆ for dreamers, for those who know their legs will just not carry them to these places, for the unadventurous adventurer, for the person who can't imagine ever going or wanting to go, these stories are just a way of sharing my awareness of a certain place that was important in my journey, however that serves you.

"You will come away feeling as if she was sharing with you personally and will want to read more of her life adventures.โ€

โ€œIโ€™ve just booked my first holiday in 13 years!โ€

"To me, you are a hero... You have learned to take something negative in your life and make it a positive... a gift to others. It doesn't get any better than that. Don't doubt that you are capable of helping others... in terms of other of life's difficulties... What an adventure!"

Susan Jeffers, Ph.D., author of "Feel the Fear and Do It Anyway"

Not small, just travel size.
