Mini Escapades Around the British Isles by Zo Cano

The British Isles, encompassing thousands of islands both big and small, are like sparkling rough-cut gems sprinkled into

the North Atlantic. Discovering their diverse and jaw-dropping landscapes are like treasures waiting to be dug up.

As a wonderful compilation of original short stories closer to home, Zoë Cano captures the very essence of Britain's natural beauty with eclectic travels she's taken over the years exploring England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales.

Unsurprisingly, these journeys turn into mini adventures that include motorcycling around the legendary Wild Atlantic Way in Ireland, slowly exploring Wales on a scooter, living in a little camper van to discover the remote Scottish Highlands and bravely sailing across the English Channel during the total Eclipse of the Sun.

With Zoë's never-ending appetite for experiencing new places, and always up for a challenge, these tales will make you chuckle out loud but also flood your roaming imagination.

Cano, Zoü¾˜¦”¼: - Zoü¾˜¦”¼ Cano was born in Hereford, England, in the wonderful '60s and has had the spirit for adventure traveling from an early age. In the 1980s, needing to find work and stand on her own two feet, she moved to Paris, bought a scooter, and lived there for a decade, working in the film industry and the international events business. For the next fifteen years, Zoü¾˜¦”¼ traveled extensively for diverse projects, taking her across the world into Europe, Asia, and the Americas. During this time, she resided in New York, and Boston. She eventually returned to England to continue working in events. Zoü¾˜¦”¼ started rowing competitively and took the challenge to skiff the entire length of the Thames from its source in the centre of England to Greenwich. She recently crossed the Peruvian Andes on horseback. She still travels extensively, often taking her beloved Triumph Bonneville motorbike. Zoü¾˜¦”¼ lives in West London, close to the river and never far from the next adventure.
