Author Description

Kath Kelly travelled the world by thumb. She still gets around in this way, though times have changed and hitching is far rarer than it ever used to be, particularly as a middle-aged woman commuting to work or visiting family and friends...This book celebrates a lifetime of thumbing adventures from the pages of Kath's diaries: some hilarious, some scary and some simply life-affirming, but all true. Whether you fancy taking to the road yourself or just want an armchair ride, this book will inspire and grip you with tales from around the globe. Join Kath, author of "How I lived a year on just a pound a day", on her previous adventures and see for yourself where you can go with a sign, a backpack and no money to speak of.Jump in and start thumbing through!
