No Fixed Address by Jackie Hartnell
When Jackie Hartnell's husband dies unexpectedly, soon after retiring, Jackie decides to become a solo travellerand explore the world. She is initiated into the world of backpacks, walking boots and youth hostels and becomes an expert on travellingon a shoestring. No Fixed Address is an inspiring collection of tales about her travels to such far-flung destinations as Morocco, Iceland, Ireland and Thailand. Jackie walks through the Lakes District, goes barging on England's canals, bathes in the freezing cold lakes of Iceland and explores Morocco's souks. Along the way she makes new friends, both young and old. She also sets off around Australia in SKI 2,her camper van, named after the fact that she is 'spending the kids' inheritance'.
Jackie Hartnell was born in Buckinghamshire, UK, and emigrated to Australia when she was 22. She was naturalised about 25 years ago and is very proud to be an Australian. Jackie's career, spanning forty years, journeyed from an electrical engineering apprenticeship, where there were nine girls to 300 boys, to thirty years in the computer industry, via primary teaching and assorted other attempts to find job satisfaction. She has now found it in retirement in her writing, which like Australia, feels it is where she should have been all her life. Jackie has been married twice -divorced once, widowed once -and has now has found her feet as an adventuring, journal-keeping woman.
