Inspirations
- May 2013
- Simple Living
Hi Steph
Thanks for writing your 2 books, I have enjoyed reading both of them very much. As soon as I got them I finished each of them within a day! It is great to see a female who is living her life as she wants it.
I am a New Zealander, climber and vegetarian (by the way I love your carrot cake recipe!) currently travelling the world for a year after quitting my job. I am hoping this time away from work will give me my zest and sense of adventure back as I feel I have lost that over the last few years of working and social peer pressure. I am hoping I will get my sense of direction and self back.
Anyway my question is who inspires you and why? Are there any books you would recommend to read who have helped you in times of stress (and at other times as well) as I have a lot of time on my hands now and am looking for inspiration, guidance and just generally some good reading 🙂
Happy flying and climbing,
Annalise
